As a new reddit exile, I may be misunderstanding this.

In theory something like a !gaming community could crop up on multiple large instances, especially during the mass exodus while instances are getting hammered with spikes in volume.

If that's the case, we'll have fragmented communities across instances. Is there any way besides subscribing to each of them to combine them into a sort of multi-reddit type aggregation? Or is this considered a temporary (albeit important to adoption) problem during the crazy stages?

I'm on Fediverse for few years and reading all the replies here I find it ... sad? Funny? I really don't know what to think of this. It looks like for many people the biggest disadvantage of federation is federation itself ... It feels like people want the centralization and don't want to have options (or rather think about the options)

Or is it an age thing? I'm kind of used to lurk the internet and find what I want. But I can imagine that people raised on f.e. Netflix, Amazon where it's like "BAM! Here you have everything" aren't used to this

I work in a space adjacent to change management (ERP implementation) and honestly, be happy and kind. These questions are the absolute default ones of humans attempting to puzzle out a paradigm shift. And the fact they're here and they're feeling loved enough to actually ask for help with their new mental model of it is about eight degrees better than it could have been.

So my answer is: it's just like r/games, r/gaming, r/videogames, r/patientgamers. They are all the same subject matter with overlapping content and userbases, with potentially wildly different moderation biases and groupthinks. And that was all on one centralised Reddit! You subbed to some, or all of them, as you saw fit, you maybe even managed a multireddit to group them! It's just the same here except they're on different instances and soon, enhancements to Lemmy pending, will be just as seamless to manage.

Greeting @[email protected] fellow ERP implementor! Your comment really hit a spot. I have many years of technical and functional knowledge, a huge amount of business domain knowledge, and most of my day is spent managing change/expectations.

Do you have a an ERP community you subscribe to?
