So I’m assuming the duplicate communities are communities of the same exact name in different instances/server. Is anyone else finding this somewhat confusing?

Is there a way to find/pick the “right” one, based on whichever has the most users?

New to Fediverse (here and Mastodon), still trying to wrap my head around the whole thing.

    I mean how do these people survive on reddit if they can search but can’t click on a big number

    Basically the same thing exists on reddit, the names are just slightly different And then there are things like anime tits being a news sub, how is anyone going to search for that on reddit

      IMHO, good subreddits have mods and mod bots that shut down commonly asked questions and point the user to a mega thread or FAQ.
