That's right. [email protected] is different from [email protected]
Note that you can use your same account to subscribe to both of them, as one may be more active than the other. Feel free to pick one or both it doesn't really matter. Different websites/servers have slightly different rules and different culture, so the posts and comments will be slightly different community to community.
How can I search for communities across servers that are particularly active on a given topic?
well that's confusing
Its different from centralized services, and better. Rather than there being a single universal gaming community, people can make their own, with their own rules. If one gaming community has bad mods, or one server has bad admins, you can move to a different one.
wait, what about if you have two communities where mods and admins are fine. Are there any options to federate those communities?
all this time I was under impression that communities already federate
There is not a single, god community. Any instance can make /c/startrek, and people can subscribe to both.

The only "universal community search" tool that we know of so far, is https://browse.feddit.de/ .
But I'd be very open to adding this type of functionality into lemmy's apps, and this UI too.
