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.
Personally i like this. I think it gives the opportunity for each individual instance to flourish or fail.
My only fear is repost issues. Someone could obviously post to ALL those instances if they wanted to and they are perfectly within their right to. But if you’re subscribed to all of them you’ll see all instances versions of that post lol
Iirc if you crosspost properly (using the crosspost feature) it'd just show up once in in the home page.
That’s cool! Didn’t know that
