Think I’ve see. This article like 6 times on lemmy 🥴
Crossposting is popular and there are a lot of overlapping communities that post the same sort of content so of course you will right now. The current lemmy users are overwhelmingly nerdy, so piracy and gaming communities are going to show up a lot and there are several of them over the different instances.
So you'll see this on several gaming communities and again on several piracy communities.
I wonder if we need 'aggregate communities' where communities across instances can agree to share a set of rules and guidelines. You still have to pick which community to post in but the content itself can be browsed like one large community, similar to a 'multireddit'.
Not sure if this would work in practice but it could be a way to merge communities across instances. It's been something I've been thinking about to address fragmentation without solving it by centralizing around one big platform.
