I don’t mean to be pessimistic, bit since most subreddits are only going dark for a couple days, the site will basically be back to normal soon. I wonder how many users here are only here because of temporary outrage and not because they actually prefer Lemmy. I’m curious about people’s outlook on this situation.
It would really help the adoption of Lemmy if we get a ‘multisub’-idea, that Reddit uses, where a user could bind multiple instances’ communities together, and make it appear as one community.
(So I can bind all similar instances into one).
Regardless, I won’t be going back to Reddit. If I stick around Lemmy, that’s kind of up to how I enjoy this platform & usability, but I can be quite stubborn with my ‘morals’. Once a platform is done for me, it is done lmao.
All you gotta do is set your filter to Subscribed and your feed will contain everything you want just like reddit. It doesn’t matter what instance each community is hosted on.
Isn’t what you’re talking about just subscribing to the different instances communities?
I’m not a lemmy pro, but I think subscribing to multiple communities only works if that’s all you ever subscribe to. If I decide I want to look at all the posts of /r/tech+technology+techsupport on reddit I can do that by writing the URL in that fashion. If I want a focused view of specific lemmy communities at one time I don’t know if that’s possible yet?
