    new to lemmy…

    if there different “linux” communities on different instances? does this mean i have to subscribe to all of them? is there a way to see all content from communities called “linux” from different instances?

    or does each “linux” community simply fight for critical mass to become the “main” linux community on lemmy?

    thanks

      There could be different linux communities on different instances, and to see them all you’d have to subscribe to them and sort by subscribed view. But yeah, in practice most of the time there will emerge one “main” linux community and, if it gets big enough, likely offshoot communities for different philosophies or more specificity.

          That does sound like a good idea, kind of like Reddit’s old multireddit function.
