The problem with this is where do you draw the lines and how do you enforce it? For example I mod a community for a specific sports league. Should there be an instance for the one league with communities for each of the teams? Maybe an instance for the sport in general but then what if you have the same team names in different leagues. Or the same league name in different countries? What about if we wanted to group team communities under a geographic instances instead of by league or by sport?
Could just be a best practice type thing. If even like 20% of people strongly believed in such, that would probably be enough to make the communities formed on a relevant instance become the dominant/main community. Would be up to communities to decide how the want to divide things via organic processes.
Exactly. If I want to see Australian porn, I'm not going to the aussie.zone instance.
