I like that the top comment went from “there are too many communities I want just one” to “Im joining to make it better for others”.

So much talk about duplicate communities, which is just so weird to me, seeing as reddit also constantly has duplicate communities despite being centralized :D

Duplicate communities are a good thing anyway.
It’s crazy that on Reddit a community can get hijacked by some fucking weirdo who has control of things basically forever.

It’s also my biggest complaint, but I avoid it by just browsing local all.

Yeah but that’s what I’m saying, this happens in exactly the same way on Reddit too

Just attempting to go to /r/anime for example ist still a lot easier tho.
I‘m not saying you can’t get used to it, but its obviously something thats worse. Especially if the whole federation thing is new for them.

When you search for a community just pick the biggest one. Really all there is to it. Honestly reddit had the same issue with similarly named subs

My point is that I don’t search for or subscribe to communities, though. Instead I browse all and mute communities I’m not interested in. This is much harder to do on global all.
In my view this isn’t a problem that needs to be fixed, it’s just something new users have to get used to.
