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?
I think 100 is perhaps a bit of an exaggeration and it matters in this case. Subbing to perhaps 5 communities about Formel 1 cars or whatever have you is not so much of an ordeal. Especially because probably most users in these communities will also be subbed to the other communities. So you very likely won’t need to post the same stuff multiple times.
It would be great though, if communities would group better in some way, perhaps like tabs in my own dashboard where I can sort the communities by topic.
It would also help if people would use the community browser to see if there are similar communities already to the one they plan to make, so that they can connect with each other.
