Good, but why are there sooo many duplicate communities?
That's simply natural with a federation-based system. If there's risk or history of defederation, different instances will naturally see similar communities grow. Initially, I intended to participate in many Beehaw's communities, but right now it's simply not possible.
It would be good if we could group communities together.
