Doesn't it place higher the communities that are on the same instance as the user?

The issue with that is that an user could be on a popular instance, like lemmy.world or a related one like lemdroid, and search for a community on it. They could find a ghost community that was created unofficially before the self-hosted one. In that case they could think this is it and there's no real discussion to be had on Lemmy.

It is also slightly weird because there's an incentive for developers to grab the appname@popular.instance to ensure they can use the name and link it to the official instance. But that also leaves a ton of pretty much barren communities.

That's why I think keeping in sync would be a good feature, keep all communities in sync with the official one so that users aren't lost.

That said, this only works for official communities, and maybe(huge maybe) regional communities that have a self hosted instance

I don't use PayPal cause it doesn't accept the most convenient method of payment of my country

This is an issue I've been wondering about, the Technology example is fine, but the real edge case IMO is Official Communities.

Like, let's say I have an Android App and want to migrate my official community to Lemmy. I could build a community in:

• A big and general instance to gather more users, like Lemmy.World.
• A big but themed instance, like Lemdro.id. It has a smaller number of users but they are more likely to be interested in my App
• I could make my own instance, which would allow me to dedicate communities into topics and I would have more control over it, which is good cause it is an official community.

I feel there should be a way for "sync" communities in those cases. It makes sense in those cases to allow a full sync, with the option to unsync if things go south and there's a split.

Nah, fuckyou_m8

Ou eu filtro pra caramba e só vejo uma meia dúzia de comunidades, ou eu vejo coisa demais, incluindo o Rio de Janeiro

Sure... If donating wasn't a pain in the ass to do due to payment methods being different across countries.

I have a few projects I wouldn't mind donating to, but as Patreon uses PayPal it is just more trouble than it is worth

People downvote cause seeing ads is annoying, but IMO, if it is done tastefully it is the only viable way to pay for the infrastructure, and it would prevent a collapse of the system.

Ainda sou a favor de ter uma comunidade Geral. Ninguém tem tempo de se inscrever em notícias, políticas, bate-papo, ou bloquear Rio de Janeiro, 196, shitpost e anime.

Único problema que eu tenho com Treble é que não dá pra deixar ele carregando enquanto o aparelho estiver desligado.

O meu aparelho não consegue passar da tela de boot (do aparelho) e ir para a tela de carregamento desligado da ROM porque aparentemente ela não existe em Treble

Taca reply automático do Bot em todo post. Irrita pra caralho, mas é mais efetivo

I wish there was a way to keep communities "in sync", like you have the big and small communities with the same posts and comments, everything's the same, so people who are on Lemmy.world could go to Android@Lemmy.World and have the same content we have here without having to discover this community.

Would help combat fragmentation, and the sync could be broken if things go south

Really wish the RIF is Fun would migrate to Lemmy, but it appears he's going to move to another service
