Is there a way for communities to combine together?
There are tons of Rust communities spread on multiple instances. Is the expectation that users interested in rust should just subscribe to all of these? Is there a community which aggregates posts from all rust communities together into one?
You're viewing a single thread.
I think in general one community is supposed to win and become the big one, but it is one of the problems with mixing the fediverse and reddit. In some ways it needs to be like a topic so any server could create posts on that topic. But that makes it hard to introduce moderation.
I'd much prefer merging across instances to avoid one instance going down from bringing with it the community. It would also avoid the problem of people posting the same thing in multiple instances as well.
I think in general this problem exist on Reddit as well having multiple subreddits focused around the same stuff it's just like you cannot have the exact same name twice. But I don't know in how many game Dev subs I am on Reddit 😁
