So my understanding is that a community created on a certain server (say lemmy.world), can be interacted with by any other federated server, and any interactions from those servers are synced to the original “true” community / server. How does it work if two servers both have a community with the same name? Each server is the owner of content created there, and then Lemmy is just merging the communities with identical names so posts from both appear under server.com/c/Music?
/c/Music on server A could have drastically different rules from /c/Music on server B, so there’s potential for users on both to see posts that wouldn’t be allowed on their server?
Like a “default” technology hub that includes several technology magazines/lemmy communities and you can then personalize the hub by either adding magazines or communities that you think fit to that hub when you think they fit or remove them if you dont? Interesting idea. Didnt some reddit apps allow you to create meta-subreddits? Would be a very similar idea.
Yeah! I don’t know how the new interface handles it, or how phone apps handle it, but on old.reddit I still see my list of multireddits on the left side of my main feed when I’m logged in.
I was kind of envisioning multimagazines and hubs as being two different things, where hubs would be created and joined by magazine mods, and then users would subscribe to hubs by default, where multimagazines would be user created and specific to that user, but one system could maybe do both…
