Why Lemmy/Kbin are fundamentally broken (and how to fix them)
This post assumes you have a basic understanding of what Lemmy and Kbin are. Which, in turn, assumes you understand at least the concept of federation. The Issue Currently, the way Lemmy/Kbin (which I will refer to simply as “Lemmy” for the rest of this article) work like this: Cool, so our user can...

I don't understand. Reddit is exactly the same, it has thousands of different subs, many with overlapping content, many duplicated because someone didn't like the mods, yet I don't recall people saying reddit was broken because of it.
Why is Lemmy suddenly broken just because people naturally do the same reddit thing here?
Can't we just ask for a feature like multi-reddit that lets users aggregate different subs into the same feeds (like sort of collections) instead of trying to reinvent the wheel?
i think it feels more broken because it has less content, communities have less subs. so it can feel like more repetition when you encounter dupplicated posts. also, if you use mobile version that has for example lemmy.ml and . world there is even more reposting most of my time at reddit i spend at my sub page and maybe once or twice encountered duplicates, hot page was different story
But that's because people "abuse" crossposting, it's a people's problem, not a platform one.
agree its still new platform to most of us, we will see what becames of it
Yeah, we just need to give lemmy time to grow, reddit wasn't done in a day either.
