Agreed. Lemmy needs “multireddits.” Currently it’s design is both a blessing and a curse - if one community goes toxic, it’s easy to find and join a rival community in another instance - that’s the blessing. But the segregation between similar communities is also the curse that you’ve described. Plus, if a popular instance goes dark, there goes that community. Multis would help alleviate both issues.
I didn't realize that if a server goes dark so does it's data. We will need archival tools for this. If the content can't be counted on, the platform will not become viable.
