Do I understand correctly that I have to subscribe to 5 different NoStupidQuestions on 5 different instances?

The content on all the communities seem different.

Why didn't the "copycats" get the "this community name has already been taken" message?

It was bad enough at The Other Place finding one overlooked sub about one of your interests.

Now you have to find every single community in every single instance if you hope to talk about your topic?

I mean, look at this:

You are viewing a single comment

It would be cool if from your subscribed communities, Lemmy would let you group the ones that are the same but are on different instances.

So if the same article is posted on two or more of the grouped communities, then it would merge the comment sections into one.

Or just drop the dupes. There are so many bots posting the same link to almost-the-same communities with no comments.
