minus-square@emptyother@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink10•1 year agoA few is still better than one. But I think there will always be nerds who want to start their own server, enough that if a big server mismanage we are free to move to smaller ones and still receive the same posts.
minus-square@qjkxbmwvzlink9•1 year agoHopefully user migration will be implemented at some point to facilitate this ( https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1985 ). Would be great to be able to change instances and maintain an easily accessible record of posts/comments/etc.!
minus-squaredeweydecibellinkfedilink1•edit-21 year agoReceiving the same posts isn’t quite the same thing without the same community, though. You see two posts, both of the same gif. One is upvoted 200 times, with 50 comments The other upvoted 50 times with 2 comments. What link do you think is more attractive? Both to you and to a passerby with no context?
minus-square@Dark3stWhite@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink3•edit-21 year agoI wish that the same posts across multiple instances could be merged together. So instead we just see the one post upvoted 250 times with 52 comments
