The content on all the communities seem different.

Why didn’t the “copycats” get the “this community name has already been taken” message?

It was bad enough at The Other Place finding one overlooked sub about one of your interests.

Now you have to find every single community in every single instance if you hope to talk about your topic?

I mean, look at this:

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world

No Stupid Questions@kbin.social

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.ca

No Stupid Questions@mander.xyz

    It would be cool if from your subscribed communities, Lemmy would let you group the ones that are the same but are on different instances.

    So if the same article is posted on two or more of the grouped communities, then it would merge the comment sections into one.

      Or just drop the dupes. There are so many bots posting the same link to almost-the-same communities with no comments.

          There’s sooo many ways to improve quality of life in the fediverse.

          That’s an extremely generous way of putting it. 😂

          I hope some of the app features make it back into the server. Stuff like blocking instances, collapsing dupes, etc are quality of like stuff that makes Lemmy bearable.
