Sub to them all?

Subscribe to all of them, pick one you like the most to post too. Welcome to the fediverse.

They don't all have 3k subs but why is it saying they do?

It’s better than having a headphones community, then a trueheadphones, etc. although I’m sure we’ll see that too lol

Neither has 3K subscribers. Only this one is close to being viable.

Yeah, this is something that's puzzled me for a while now. It appears federation and instances only splinter like-minded communities. [email protected] is just one of too many examples.

Unfortunately, one of them will have to die...

Kidding, just do what sharpiemarker said

It is interesting. I think the solution would be that the mods of each need to cross-advertise until a better solution is available, or simply decide which one will be the one to rule them all and have the mods in the others direct everyone to the chosen one.

An issue will arise if the communities don't want to cooperate with each other. In that case, they just need to be treated as separate communities that may have overlapping members.

vlemmy.net one was my community that no longer is active due to Vlemmy shutting down :/ so count that out

Scattered is ok. More choice. Less moderation elitism. Anyway headphone communities were always scattered. Headwise, Head-Fi, SBAF, reddit, Discord. Survival of the stronger I guess. 🗡️
