Is it possible to bundle or group sublemmys? (sh.itjust.works)

Posted this elsewhere but I'll ask here too.

Say for instance two or three instances have their own version of a sublemmy for some niche topic. Is it possible to group those sublemmys together so I can view posts from each federated instance as if they were all on one site?

Sure, over time things might normalize and one instances sublemmy will probably reign supreme, but for now is this possible?

Hi JB, I went down this rabbit hole last week, here is a post I made summarizing what I found, with links to the dev's GH discussions of the different ideas for implementing the linking of communities, both within an instance or across instances, public or private, mod or user created. These features would likely be implemented separately.

There is also a link to a firefox extension that you may find useful while the dev work is ongoing.
