It’s inconvenient to have to hop between different instances to see what is going on, and it would be nice to just be able to aggregate it all in someway like the equivalent of multisubreddits in events where defed happens.
One hypothetical being
lemmy/c/PatientGamers@sh.itjust.works+technology@beehaw.org+Futurama @lemmy.world+Android@lemmy.world+RetroGaming@lemmy.world+PC Gaming@lemmy.ca+Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film/.rss
Being able to customize the feed you see regardless of where you are signed in or not signed in would make it so much easier to juggle different accounts depending on the policies of each, and stay connected with the communities you want. Would also make it easier for instances to be able to defed without worrying as much on impact on users to create the space they want.
What happens if the instance also defeds beehaw.org?
That’s the type thing that has me wishing there was a reliable way to get a single feed to view the communities I want without worry about the decisions of each instance against the other. Especially with the decisions being an impact on the entire instance as opposed to a whitelist of certain communities.
Self-host a Lemmy instance. I think as long as you and whoever you share it with respects the rules of whatever instance you’re interacting with you should have no problems accessing all of the communities.
That I can’t answer with any confidence. I would assume it works the same way, in as much as Beehaw’s content simply wouldn’t naturally filter into the feeds of the other instance’s users, but I’m happy to be set straight on that if I’m wrong.
So does that means if a member of a defeded instance searches out a community with ![community]@[bannedinstance] it will show up in community/all when they search for it, but members of that instance just won’t be able to comment or vote?
Even then I do think an RSS would be nice to have in the event an instance disappears and then having to search out which communities you were active in again.
