Enjoying exploring Aussie Zone so far. Thanks to @lodion, i think, for hosting! I’m an endemic lurker coming over from Reddit. Trying a few things on ‘Jerboa for Lemmy’, learning the ropes, so sorry for editing and other mistakes, please let me know when I make them.

To the actual point of the post,

Theres a few different spots, other instances/communities, that I’s wondering if ‘Aussie Zone’ should/can link the feed to. So we can begin to coalesce an Aussie user base, without all having to pile into the one instance, or individually find these other places and have duplication across communities of similar topics.

For example there is, lemmy.perthchat.org (instance) [email protected] (community) lemmy.nz (instance) (would probs be good to keep tabs on these dodgy lookin fellas) And i’m sure there are others,

Maybe i’ve got the wrong end of the stick, but it seems like we could end up with several concurrent ‘Australia’ chats leading to fragmentation and reduced engagement as a result?

Sorry for the essay.

    Yeah I’d like to see “multicommunities” in Lemmy’s future. It would definitely help combat community fragmentation. Though it may also increase community confusion :)

      Agree. It would be nice to subscribe to things by topics like #australia or #melbourne, and let the federation from your instance sort out the rest.

      Btw thanks for setting up this instance! I was considering something similar, but don’t need to bother now. 😁
