How should we deal with similarly named communities? (kbin.social)

Right now there are similarely named communities across the fediverse.

"fediverse@xxx", "Linux@xxx", "asklemmy", "askkbin"..etc...

I'm on kbin and I'm having a hard time figuring out how to use the fediverse more productively, by reaching the largest amount of people for asking questions, solving problems, simply put: to engage... like I used to do on Reddit?

Or perhaps a reciprocity between communities, where instead of everyone subscribing to c/mushroomA and c/mushroomB, the community of mushroomA would decide to reciprocate w c/mushroomB so their posts would display alongside mushroomA posts. Kind of like a keyword association that generates a multi-Reddit like co-mingling.

Edited to remove all those pings.
