Small communities that are interoperable” is basically what Reddit is now.

Which is EXACTLY why federation fits the reddit style of forum like a glove, and why ultimately Lemmy is the path forward.

I'm also on Mastodon, and saw posts saying "you can follow Lemmy communities from Mastodon!" - and sure enough you can, but by god you shouldn't unless you want your feed to be full of comments without context.

Yeah it's kinda weird that from mastodon it boosts all the comments instead of just the posts. You can tap into the posts to see the comments anyways, can't you?

This is the problem I'm having now and I don't know how to go back.
