Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

I'm still trying to figure out the whole Fediverse thing. I kind of get the impression that at this point, the expectation is that one ~~ring will rule them all~~ community will end up becoming the most popular if there are many communities that cover the same topic. I hope that works. Because until it does, there will be a bunch of tiny little communities with small groups of members who are isolated from each other.
My hope is they add multi communities of some sort. Where you can
A. Group like communities together and browse them by topic, similar to multireddits
And/or
B. Certain communities can join forces and automatically cross-post with each other to reduce duplication and fragmentation while still splitting load.
Unfortunately I think it'd be complicated as far as moderation goes, because posts would have to be moderated across instances by different mods.
