Confusion around duplicate communities - eviltoast

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, or should it just be based on whichever has the most users?

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

    You look at each community and decide for yourself if it’s one you want to follow. Just like in Reddit when you had gaming, games, truegaming, etc, each one will have different people, different rules, different kinds of conversations, and different levels of activity.
