[Feature Req] Implement client side multicommunities
One of the features I really miss from the snu site is multireddits. It would be really handy to have a similar feature available in boost that can aggregate posts from multiple communities into a single feed view.
There’s Home (Subscribed), Local, and All views. If I open All, I can see posts from communities all over the Fediverse, even ones that I haven’t subscribed to.
Multireddits are like having multiple customizable subscription feeds. E.g one called “Consoles” which is PSVita+Switch+SteamDeck+Oculus, or one filled with nothing but subs with cute animal pictures.
Especially on Lemmy as every topic has a bunch of communities on multiple instances - 3DPrinting@lemmy.world, 3D Printing@lemmy.ml, 3D printing@lemm.ee, 3D Printing@kbin.social etc. Would be great to have just one multi that groups all of them together.
I agree, that would be handy, though I think the original design was to allow one to rise to the top organically (i.e. people are more likely to join the community with the most members). I don’t know how that’s actually playing out in reality, and having the ability to group them all would be useful.
I’m interested in custom buckets of communities so I can build topic views. All, Local and Subbed aren’t granular enough to do that.
It’s probably a feature Lemmy itself should support on the instance but client side feeds would be nice to have until they get around to adding proper server side multis.
