This is what I mean…Left is tchncs.de, right is Lemmy.ml

Edit: Also, trying to access those communities that don’t appear in the search result for specific instance, gives this message

404: couldnt_find_community

    As long as it is like that, i would agree. But i fear there might be competing communities that are mostly similar. Might be that through Darwinian selection at one point the fittest community survives but until then it might get confusing.

      yeah I’ll be interested to see how it all plays out starting on the 12th, and especially after July 1st

      we will likely see multiple communities vying to be ‘top dog’ in their respective specialties

      as far as I can tell this really isn’t a problem for other federated software like Mastodon because people just use hashtags over there instead of defined communities with rules like reddit/lemmy where people ‘join’ and generally hang out

      either way I’m excited to see what happens
