Not sure if I understand this, but I think the way the lemmy federation works is:
-
there are multiple servers in the federation (for example, lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, lemmy.whatever, etc.)
-
each server can have multiple communities, which are like subreddits
-
so, for example, each server can have its own community for photography.
Q1: is my summary correct?
Q2: is there a way to subscribe to multiple related communities across different servers and “merge” those communities into a single view? so that I don’t have to click on each separate one? edit: for example, if there are 3 servers that each have a photography community, can I merge them into a single “photography” view?
Sorry if this is a silly question (or if the answer is obvious).
Does Lemmy have a feature where an instance owner can alias a community on a different server?
Say there’s a lemmy.ml c/llamas and a beehaw c/llamas, and lemmy.ml agrees to just redirect [email protected] to [email protected]. Is that currently possible? Is it on the desired feature list?
