Created this thread to keep an eye on this feature as I believe it could have a huge impact on communities visibility

Edit: multicommunities / multimagazines would work similar to multireddits: they would be created by users for themselves. Users would be able to make them public if they want to, but the main use case would be private.

The idea is to be able to browse your own "memes feed" and then "news feed" without having all the content mixed in your general Subscription feed

Opt in for communities to self group as one single feed they can advertise without duplication? Sure.

Prevent people from being able to group them however they see fit in their own feeds? Definitely not.

I really like the idea about grouped communities with deduplication

I'm not sure exactly how you'd handle merging comment streams or where you'd direct new comments, so that could be a complicating factor, but I definitely see a lot of overlap of articles.
