I love that comment sections here are like, y’know, discussions and stuff. Not just the same jokes and parroted phrases over and over and over.

    Tbh, I kinda miss these links. Lemmy has a big discoverability issue, and part of that is that it’s impossible to link to a post or comment in an instance-agnostic way.

    Links to communities would at least help to find new communities to join.

            I just wish I could merge 2 different communities and have dupes handled.

              I don’t think there are technically dupes. You could have multiple communities across different instances all called “gaming”. But that wouldn’t mean they all share the same rules and posting formats, etc.

              They’d basically be like different subreddits. So you could potentially create a multireddit, but not truly merging “duplicate” communities.

                Yeah multicommunities please! Also when you sub to a community a smol popup appears that asks if you’d like to sub to these other communities with the same name. Of course disable in settings.

                Yeah, but it would be nice if there was a way to consolidate when a single person posts the same article in every iteration of gaming across the platform.

                  Ohhh, yeah, that is a sort of unique issue. Even then each one would have different vote and boost counts as well as unique comments sections. I think with a clever enough UI you could still work it out, though.

        I like to browse "everything " sorted to new. I find new communities that way. And there isn’t an underlying algorithm that curated your feed according to what your viewing history is.

        That’s why it’s different from r/all, there is less manipulation.
