As a new reddit exile, I may be misunderstanding this.
In theory something like a !gaming community could crop up on multiple large instances, especially during the mass exodus while instances are getting hammered with spikes in volume.
If that’s the case, we’ll have fragmented communities across instances. Is there any way besides subscribing to each of them to combine them into a sort of multi-reddit type aggregation? Or is this considered a temporary (albeit important to adoption) problem during the crazy stages?
Ironally it looks like Lemmy actually has some sort of RSS functionality you can tap into to make that happen.
Like in the very early internet where your daily blog roll is opening the rss viewer. Everywhere on the web that updated that you subscribed to, and there are viewers that can filter and collate iirc. so your daily update is local, and you only go to the ones you are actually interested in.
Firefox rss support was removed in 2018, and lmao i only knew because i was trying to set up the rss feed from lemmy last night.
