Hard disagree. This allows abuse by moderator abuse similar to how reddit does it. Ideally the UI would allow you to create collections of communities based on your own groupings. And search could be expanded to find more similar communities (ie: based on keywords).
The way loading/finding and joining a totally new community into a new external instance is kinda buggy.
Yeah, basically we need somthing like public and private multireddits. Public, so you can sub to one thing to get content from many similar communities, and private, for people to organize their own stuff.
Yeah agree totally. Kinda what I was trying to get at below. https://lemmy.pub/comment/9124
If you disagree, how would this be different from google then?
Sorry. Was getting late and comment submissions have been weird.
Personally I am hoping for 2 or 3 changes thst I went into here.

-1. Create multi-communities thst you can group together multiple different communities across instance into a single place based on whatever criteria. Basically like multi-reddits and allow them to be public/shared or private. This would allow the load to be spread across instances and different moderation strategies to take place without a single community becoming some weird power grab.
-2. Makes links to other instances and communities always open in your instance so you dont have to constantly create a https://my-instance.com/c/[email protected] style link. Basically what this site is doing, but integrated into your own communities section.
-3. Like above, Improve search and communities to index basic stats before you have to externally find and, search multiple times to get your instance to discover the communities then open the federated link an subscribe. And when on a multi-community aid it discovery of new additions with a basic keyword search. This one is probably the most difficult and may scare some folks from privacy standpoint. But could be mitigated a bit if you can make option one public for others to subscribe to or use mutlis they didnβt compile themselves.
