This is pretty awesome because the Admin of sh.itjust.works’s handle is TheDude

Yes

I can’t find startrekmemes did they move over?

Right now, not much, I think? But since Lemmy is open source, instances may begin to form with new functionality as long as the core protocols preserve federation?

What would you call them?

I know on Kbin instances you can group feed with hashtags, which can group posts, magazines (“communities” on Lemmy), miniblogs under the same feed, and will fetch from other protocols beside Kbin and Lemmy as well. But they’re just called “tags”

Here’s my brainstorm list for grouped communities from federated instances:

Feeds

Clusters

Slices (slice:lemmings::pod:whales)

Villages

Hamlets

And/or Meta- or Mulit- prefixed to any of these…

Anyways just shouting into the void here lol. Is there a meta thread for Lemmy development? I’m not s developer so I have nothing of substance to add, just a use case to suggest as a user.

And then they build their own cottages, and mcmansions, and apartment blocks, along with all the noise and detritus… and now your cozy little cottage is just a house in bustling village

Now what we need are concatenated multi-communities where I can have a linkable collection of each of these overlapping subscriptions at multiple federated instances. In RES they were “multi-reddits” and they were my primary way of compartmentalizing and consuming content.
