A user checking out one of these URLs does not want to filter only local post on that instance.
On all instances, this url should mean "show me all /c/piracy on all federated instances"
If you really mean /c/piracy only on that instance, then add something to the url.
The current convention breaks the most important aspect of federation and makes its vestigial appendage.
The current way has user asking question /c/piracy, but on which instance ?
So now they'll all join the same instance . You wouldn't post anywhere else since no one would every see it.
It's a recipe for centralization.
I think this is obvious to most users, were deal with "voat with extra steps" here
You're viewing a single thread.
I love this idea. You should put it up as a recommendation on the lemmy GitHub if it's not there already.
Another user posted similar issues Those issues attempt for a "multireddit" like compromise feature 818 1113
So I made a "communities must be aggregated" non compromise bug report instead

The more I read, the more I think ideological beliefs about controlling speech will prevent this from happening. Moderators want centralization so there can be one throat to choke.
It wont matter if the implement it at the instance level to at least allow grouping or "Towns" as I said above
I'm not sure how to word it. Also, it's so blindingly obvious that I'm starting to think this is a ideologically motivated decision to prevent community aggregation on purpose (to force communities to concentrate on single instances, giving the owner of that instance leverage over the community?)
