Definitely, thanks for sharing.
I guess that over time people will just more and more to !rust@programming.dev , and that it will become the de facto instance
Yep, that’s what I expect to happen. I do think that the authors idea of communities following other communities is interesting though.
Some level of community merging seems both inevitable and necessary. Initially, my assumption was that a single instance would be the home for an individual community, but that’s just not how things work for many reasons. Communities of the same type should have a way to talk to each other, and more importantly, make it easy for users to follow them wherever they are. The current system is obviously inefficient for many reasons. I think there’s a lot of content across communities that is not being surfaced to users for whom that content is relevant, and it is making the entire system feel less lively than it could be.
We need a solution for the problem described in the article. It’s annoying everybody and making everything less efficient. Multiple postings of the same topic for several days are just one example.
I hate that I saw the word “threadiverse”, knew exactly what it meant, and was still like " ugh frakkin’ kids today gotta have a word for everything… "
Getting old sucks. I don’t recommend it, but I also can’t think of a better alternative.
But inherently, I’m missing the majority of users by only being able to post to one. I.E., I posted to AskLemmy@lemmy.ml (which had 3k users)
3k from your instance
