So I’m assuming the duplicate communities are communities of the same exact name in different instances/server. Is anyone else finding this somewhat confusing?

Is there a way to find/pick the “right” one, or should it just be based on whichever has the most users?

New to Fediverse (here and Mastodon), still trying to wrap my head around the whole thing.

    I agree with your point of view and its advantages. Of course it’s also a matter of degree. One can imagine the situation where there’s one “copy” of a community per server, or even per person; now this is absolutely unrealistic, but there’s a continuity of cases from that unrealistic situation to the present situation. Somewhere along that continuum, fragmentation becomes more negative than positive.
