I hate that I saw the word "threadiverse", knew exactly what it meant, and was still like " ugh frakkin' kids today gotta have a word for everything... "

Getting old sucks. I don't recommend it, but I also can't think of a better alternative.

Definitely, thanks for sharing.

I guess that over time people will just more and more to !rust@programming.dev , and that it will become the de facto instance

Yep, that's what I expect to happen. I do think that the authors idea of communities following other communities is interesting though.

We need a solution for the problem described in the article. It's annoying everybody and making everything less efficient. Multiple postings of the same topic for several days are just one example.

But inherently, I'm missing the majority of users by only being able to post to one. I.E., I posted to AskLemmy@lemmy.ml (which had 3k users)
