This is what I mean…Left is tchncs.de, right is Lemmy.ml Edit: Also, trying to access those communities that don’t appear in the search result for specific instance, gives this message 404: couldnt_find_community
minus-squarelackthought@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·1 year agoI think it could be a good thing overall each community might have a different culture so you can choose which to participate in like r/gaming vs. r/games on reddit both are ‘gaming’ communities but are not really the same in content
minus-squareDarkwinDuck@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoAs long as it is like that, i would agree. But i fear there might be competing communities that are mostly similar. Might be that through Darwinian selection at one point the fittest community survives but until then it might get confusing.
