I'm trying to understand it still. I understand you can visit communities from any other instance, but are communities shared between them? I mean, if there's an r/NFL in lemmy.world, can lemmy.ml also contain an r/NFL and would those two be two different things?
This is also the confusing part to me. If I want to see content for NFL, are we all fractured among hundreds of servers and there is no way to see all new posts on all of the verse at once?
You would just have to subscribe to both so they are in your feed. I don't know if there's any way to merge them into one, but that shouldn't be impossible. That doesn't mean it's a currently implemented feature though...
Merging them is not necessarily always a good idea neither. Different instances might have different rules and principles
I meant merge like how multireddit works, where you combine multiple subs into a single distinct feed that doesn't include all the subs you're subbed to.
