MODERATORS
you can just subscribe to them all. that way, if one instance goes down, or dies out, or makes nonsensical moderation decisions, you still have the others. it's not a bug, it's a feature!
I definetly understand the benifits of this, but a lot of these communities post the same or a lot of duplicate content.
Also didn't think about the nonsensical moderation in one community, so maybe mirroring them wouldn't be that great of an idea.
it really only seems like an issue til you use lemmy for a while imo
there really should be a better way of multiposting so that duplicate content is not actually shown to the user
possible in those cases the instances have each other blocked so they have duplicates of the community they cant access
Just follow the biggest one so the smaller ones can be abandoned same as it works on reddit.
