How do I deal with "fractured" communities? (lemmy.world)

One of the biggest issues I'm having trouble getting past with Lemmy is not knowing which communities to subscribe to.

An example, if there are like 10+ different communities for "technology", do I really have to subscribe to all of them just to get the same experience I would have gotten on /r/technology?

Is there a way to "clump" these communities together so I can just subscribe to one "multi-community" that houses the posts from all of them?

I'm hoping for two features: Let communities "follow" other communities - so one community's content also shows up on the other. And let me group communities together on my personal feed, if they don't want to follow each other for some reason. For now, I stay mostly on the home page, which aggregates everything - but I'd much prefer to be able to browse by topic and still have some aggregation.
