  Probably needs a new comment to get people to converge indeed

  I just remembered it is even on their roadmap: codimd.tyhou12.xyz/s/TukD_H96z#Multi-communities

    I see that says ‘has to be local only, not federated’ (same issue also discussed on github).
    ‘Local only’ suggests to me front-end, i.e. info stored by browser. In that case people who are often switching devices would have to re-organise on each one, which could be tedious.
    So isn’t there something in between local and federated - i.e. saved by the instance as user-settings, but not pushed to other instances?
    Maybe there could be some manual copying mechanism, so a user who organises a big set of communities could share with others. (This reminds me of mastodon ‘lists’ and various ways of organising and transferring them).

      My understanding was closer to this one.

      For instance in my case, it would be something like reddthat.com/u/Blaze/multicommunity1, but that wouldn’t get federated to other instances
