Very frustrating because many of the largest generic groups like news were there.
Yup. News, Politics, Gaming, Technology are just a few I had joined. This feels like a major blow to this whole Fediverse thing if it’s trying to retain momentum from what Reddit is doing, since a lot of the more populous instances just got cut off on the larger instances.
I get where they’re coming from, but like… way to try to sabotage the entire system, I guess.
It does seem like a major flaw in the whole thing if you can just lose access to a community you've become part of because you happened to sign up on the wrong instance.
There should be an option to make another instance "read-only". Example- people from lemmy.world can view/subscribe to beehaw communities but can't vote/comment (and vice versa). That would have been slightly better.
