I think of it like selfhosted@lemmy.world instead of just selfhosted. Sure there may be duplicate communities on different instances but over time I think there will be more people gravitating to a particular community and people will just sub there from then on and the others will become more dormant. When I refer to a community I’ll just use the full name (selfhosted@lemmy.world) and not just the community name (selfhosted)
I absolutely understand, I am just trying to think of making it as adoptable as possible. Remember that many people struggled to adapt to Reddit and now lemmy will be adding additional layers of complexity that make entry more cumbersome unless you’re savvier than the average internet user. It isn’t cosmic but it should be considered and mitigated.
