There are some proposed solutions in this article: https://popcar.bearblog.dev/lemmy-needs-to-fix-its-community-separation-problem/
It’s only a problem if you find decentralisation a problem, which I don’t.
Interesting!
I think it would make most sense to join instances into a group, so when a user posts in one community, the community clones the post to the others.
Crossposting doesnt even work, but there should be a post type so that all content is read-only and the interactions (likes, comments) are redirected to the original post
What do you mean? Many posts have “crossposted from” in their description or as part of the page. Mbin shows all other crossposts and in the default lemmy GUI you can click through the crosspost chain.
That’s just centralisation with extra steps. Also, imagine somebody is blocked from the original posting instance. Does that mean they can’t interact with the post at all?
No not centralization. You can post on whatever instance, and the posts are “symlinked” to the similar communities. Interactions go to the instance post you made. Percectly decentralized.
If a user is blocked, such communities could agree to share the blocklist. Otherwise, they could post on a clone community (like aready possible) and their posts would not be linked to the instance where they are blocked
I dont see the issue
Symlinked? Clone community? Instance post?
Dude, what?
The issue is you’ve thought about this, made up terms that make sense in your head on the path to your conclusion, and have just jumped ahead to conclusion when posting instead of taking others along the same path. I could also go “stirling sticks are superior to warble sticks, isn’t it obvious? The stirling stick is multi-faceted in its use, but the warble stick can only be used for consistent ‘viscosity’. I don’t see the issue”.
