but lemmy.ml users are by far funnier and more based

How about rebasing instead of merging to get a more linear meme history?

no, because not everyone likes to join lemmy.world because of the fedipact.

It didn’t used to be like this. Maybe take it up with the brave patriot who’s made it his sacred duty to repost ml memes to world, in the hopes of convincing the world admins to defederate from ml. https://lemmy.world/comment/15251475

Thanks for this detailed reasoning.

There should be a way to see the content from different communities with the same name but from different instances in the same page, like some sort of automatic multireddit. The content would probably be limited to instances federated with your home instance but even then it's something I would like to have.

You cannot assume that communities with the same name are meant to be on the same topic.

Say I set up an instance focused on discussing parties at home. There are fun in-person games you can play with your friends when many of you are over, so I would create a community c/games for discussing them. Now, what if I want my instance to federate with lemmy.world? They already have a c/games that is dedicated to videogames. Maybe I also would need a community dedicated to videogames, but I'd have to call it c/videogames, because I already have a c/games.

Some human intervention would be required to let the network know that the local c/videogames is the one that has to federate with lemmy.world's c/games, and not the local c/games.

Maybe an automatic suggestion would be fine as a starting point, but it would be more useful that communities themselves could explicitly establish which remote communities they are associated with, without depending on the names.

I agree, theres no need to fight

[–] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

Quick! Someone crosspost this to !memes@lemmy.world

Your proposal is much too streamlined.

Perhaps you presume memes are a commodity of which consumption should be maximized!

Nay, I say. Memes are an essential nutrient that becomes toxic in larger doses.

Thus, they must be scattered about in the environment to be encountered by happenstance whilst I pursue my main information foraging goal of finding ad hoc justification for my durable sense of dread.

Memes, uhh, find a way.

Do whatever you want but I am planning many epic shitposts pretty much anywhere I can get a reaction.
