This link doesn't work. There's only 3 communities for patientgamers: world, shitjustworks, and ml
Currently, communities are created and hosted on a single instance, and are moderated by moderators on that instance.
You can be a moderator of communities on different instances, my account here on programming.dev is a moderator of communities on other instances such as lemmy.ml
Yeah I think of downvotes as like micro-moderation, or crowd sourced curation. It's generally a good feature. They can be annoying sometimes but it's better than the alternative of bad/spam posts/comments flooding your feed.
Message text so you don't have to read the image:
Hi /u/Die4Ever,
Thank you for posting to /r/Games. Unfortunately, we have removed this submission per Rule 8.
Promotional Content Requirements
We have strict rules for promoting content. Posting links to your own or affiliated content are considered self-promotion. Promotion should not be the main purpose of your account, you should be an active, participating member of this community first. Violation of these rules can result in a ban either on your user or on the site or game in question. Remember that Reddit has its own advertising feature which is a much better, appropriate way to use Reddit for the purpose of advertising!
Post Compensation and Disclosure - Receiving compensation of any kind to post about something without disclosure is strictly against the rules. This includes money, Reddit Gold, or anything in between.
Account History Requirement - No more than 10% of your submissions across all of Reddit may be to any single site, profile, or channel. This is not limited to your own content: you can be in violation of the promotion rules for a site that you have no direct affiliation with. Comments usually do not factor into the 10% rule. That being said, we can take comments into account if we feel they are being used to circumvent the 10% submission restriction (such as posting a specific domain repeatedly in comments) Additionally, moderators may use their discretion when it comes to multiple sources about the same topic in relation to promotional limits.
If you have any questions or would like additional clarification on the promotion rules for /r/Games, feel free to send the mods a message about it!
This is considered an official warning. Further Rule 8 violations may result in greater consequences, up to and including an account and/or domain ban from this subreddit.
If you would like to discuss this removal, please modmail the moderators. This post was removed by a human moderator; this comment was left by a bot.

I think the devs want comments to be specific to the community in order to retain the culture of each community.

Combining comments is out, because these are different posts that live on different communities, each with their own members and mod policies.
Lemmy-ui already has a "post-deduplicator" that simplifies viewing cross-posts on the same page, that should probably be replicated in a lot of UIs. But that seems to me the best way to handle it.
This comment is another way to explain the issue https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4225#issuecomment-1837522660
This would be a bad user experience for certain communities. Imagine the same news article is posted in /c/cars and /c/fuckcars. It is not desired nor expected to have all comments combined.
But I do think there may be some room for combined comments, like when Lemmy has a method to group communities, maybe those comments could be combined from the grouped communities.
Aside from the “spooky” Day-Oh
I feel like this has to be a joke, I think they did it on purpose
Worms speedruns in the past have been really cool, definitely looking forward to that. And Mario 2 is always amazing.
The big difference is a human OP gets a notification when someone comments, and presumably the OP is usually interested in discussing the thing they posted
what would be even cooler is if it automatically subscribed you to communities based on the answers you gave
or at least listed them out? I think Lemmy will soon have an option to import a list of communities to subscribe to all at once
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3976
could either copy paste the json for it, or do it through the api after the account is created?
Too bad lemmy.world is down right now lol
Edit: back up now, subscription went through
Maybe it should also count users that vote?

what happens when there's 2 different posts in the same community with the same URL, example:
https://programming.dev/post/8880813
https://programming.dev/post/1721399
(I can't find a more recent example right now)
