Urgh, people are constantly telling me; "Buy EU Rope, Anne" , or "Buy Frome, U"

Let me just clear the air by saying the following:

  1. My name is not Anne

  2. I have all the rope that I need, and I got it from Switzerland.

  3. Buying property in Frome is really expensive:

Wait wait wait! I dont think people want you to buy property in Frome, they want you to buy Frome as a city. Did you look up whether buying the whole lot would be cheaper than buying isolated properties? It may sound irrational but sometimes it's cheaper to buy rechargeable batteries in a pack with a charger than without a charger.

...I am in a desperate need of an equivalent to /s

Well I already own the bedrock under my garage, and I'm pretty sure that layer extends up towards east Somerset, so I technically already own the freehold of Frome already. Just waiting for them to send me my landlord crown through the post. Anyday now.

We should probably deal with the fragmentation before it becomes a bigger problem.

Does lemmy have an equivalent to multi-reddits, and more importantly, do they collate across instances?

Some people are very much against consolidation: https://pawb.social/post/21146683

No that's fine, they can remain separate. I'm looking for the ability to combine them client-side.

UPDATE: Found a github ticket requesting it, but I don't believe it's been implemented.

A few clients have it, but it's app-dependent. Piefed has feeds as well: https://piefed.social/feeds

Do you happen to know some of these apps for me to look up?
