Isn’t that one of the side effects of having a federated universe? I don’t feel it’s so much riding your work as it is combining conversations within a single deduped community.

Also, if nothing is done about it, wouldn’t we keep having issues like this: https://lemmy.ca/post/2821804

Any plans to improve the sorting algorithm so that there’s a good balance of fresh posts at the top that’s also fairly active? And to help promote smaller communities that would have otherwise been dominated by the posts from bigger instances.

Any concerns about duplicate communities across multiple instances? People have made the argument that it’s like having different flavors of subreddits on Reddit, but it’s a flawed analogy. Individual instances have incentive to make their own communities flourish, whether or not there’s a duplicate already available.
