Is there a way for communities to combine together? (programming.dev)

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?

It could be cool to have a feature of "allied communities" (or: a community family), where popular posts in each would be seen in the others.

This could maybe be achieved with bots crossposting from one community to another?

That's a neat idea. But the way I imagined it, all the comments will show together as well. Unless it's possible to do so with crossposts?
