Duplicate communities should have been prohibited, or at least regulated, from the start. To me the problem is Why TF are people making a 2nd knitting community when one already exists? Instance theme isn’t appropriate for the original community? Migrate it.
You’re missing the point of having a decentralized network. As long as people are allowed to spin up their own instance, duplicate communities are bound to exist. You can view both of them or choose which one you prefer.
No, your missing the difference between can and should. We’re in the fledgling stages of this Federation and already there are duplicate communities. How are these anything but an aggravation and hassle to newcomers trying to figure out what is where? You see freedom, I see obfuscation and dilution possibly to the point of absurdity.
