Communities don't need to be different on the fediverse. Just use the ones you like.
Or both! Both is good.
Yeah but then your feed has duplocates
As if Lemmy was active enough to not check All by default
that and a split community meaning less content in each
Not really, if you want exposure then you have the incentive to crosspost. The real difference is you get to choose who moderates you.
Exposure may be the incentive but I've seen divergence between split communities. Crossposting is another activity, another barrier. Sure, it may just be two clicks, but if a reasonable number of users feel at home in one of the two, they likely won't look at the other. Especially when much of it is duplication.
I appreciate 196 but the blahaj admins are crazy, which is why I am very thankful there are multiple overlapping 196 communities.
Which is a fair point. But kinda besides the split leading to a split in community and content to some degree.
