Does it really need to entirely replace Reddit? I'm happy as long as we can form vibrant communities and keep the conversations going.
I agree it's rough around the edges. It would be nice if, in addition to federated servers, there were also federated communities. That way if I post something to /c/homeassistant here, it auto-propagates to /c/homeassistant communities on other servers.
That is what I was trying to get at. Any community should exist on all of them, they just have different home bases. On top of that, we have Lemmy & Kbin, both running on top of Mastodon. This can work, it just needs to solidify a bit more before it fragments too far to be useful. I don't want another reddit, I want the communities that reddit enabled.
Yes, being able to replicate communities with redundancy across multiple instances would be fantastic. I have accounts on like 6 lemmy instances right now and would spend some effort on getting redundancy to work, if it was possible.
