listen, I'm willing to go to smaller instances if necessary, but for the same reason I signed up for mastodon.social - I want my local community to not be a desert, if at all possible.

It looks on the main page, you can view posts across all communities on lemmy, regardless of which community you're on, so that certainly helps.

But... If I'm on Lemmy.ml/c/Montreal , I can't see the posts on lemmy.ca/c/Montreal Are we going to need one account for every Lemmy instance out there ?

You can see those posts. You can see the posts of any community as long as your server federates with their server.

No, you just need to subscribe to !montreal@lemmy.ca. "Unfortunately" they share the same name, but they are different communities.

Just search for [!montreal@lemmy.ca](/c/montreal@lemmy.ca) on the search bar of your instance (lemmy.ml) and you're good to go!

I think he's looking for something more similar to a multi reddit which as far as I can tell at the moment is not a thing here. A single page you can go to, to see posts from both montreal@lemmy.ml and montreal@lemmy.ca in one single feed.
