That’s what makes it better than reddit. It can’t so easily be controlled by just a few people, because if one community/magazine on one instance gets overrun with toxicity, you can start a mag/comm with the same name on another instance.
absolutely, I am not against this kind of decentralization.
What I meant is that something could be done to collect the communities posts under one collection to make it easier for the user to join/see the communities content.
For example, if you subscribe to c/Technology you are subscribed to all the c/Technology communities (optional) in the federation. But this brings with it the problem of duplicates and I don’t think there is an easy way to avoid it, and obviously different communities may have different rules.
Put simply: being able to subscribe to collections.
I say this because it seemed to me, at least initially, that for new users this presence of multiple communities with the same name was annoying and confusing.
