Do you feel that maybe you are losing sight of your lemmy.nz communities in all the noise of federation?
A good little search trick is to search as shown below. This will pull in all the threads on lemmy.nz (or no.lastname.nz) if you are on a larger lemmy instance:
Lemmy and the fediverse (when working and we have all the bugs sorted) will mean that I can register on say lemmy.world or no.lastname.nz and I can subscribe to communities from any federated instance of lemmy and read and comment or ever create new posts.
You can hover my name or Dave' and you should be able to see the difference between a local user (Dave) and myself (posting from a remote instance - no.lastname.nz)
Even more interesting we (as lemmy users) can subscribe to mastodon or kbin servers through federation
Edit: added clarity - I hope
Yes all makes perfect sense! I think the hardest bit is that when I'm on eg lemmy.world I won't be able to subscribe there, I have to search it up on lemmy.nz. I understand why, but for the average user that's hard I imagine.
Loving that it works with Mastodon as well!
