2 years agoSo I think I’ve spotted a problem with how Lemmy’s federation actually works. I can give you several examples, but I’ve spotted that there are several ‘Technology’ communities that originate on different servers. They’re definitely different ‘communities’ because they have quite dissimilar subscriber numbers. That’s potentially going to cause a lot of confusion going forward - I really don’t want to have to subscribe to two or three of everything…
A potentially stupid question so I apologise in advance. Am I right in thinking that this community is sitting on a Lemmy-based server, but it just has an unusual name rather than the typical xxxxx.lemmy/lemmy.xxxxx format?
