we have "sub-lemmys" but what we are missing for lack of a better term is "dom-lemmys", hear me out (self.lemmyworld)

What we're really lacking on the ui end is a way to see groups of identical communities that are on different federated platforms. Hence the idea of a dom-lemmy. The way it would work is lets say you search for a cat community called "cats", there's at least dozens of them out there already. Instead it would return the cats dom-lemmy, with the option to either drill down to a specific instance, or to merge all sub-lemmys called cats into a single view

Same here. I think people put undue meaning on the idea of having one single canonical correct place for a topic. Classic FOMO.
