    No. The entire point is for people to have choice. There is no downside as a user to joining multiple communities with the same name/theme on different instances.

    Consolidating communities onto one instance is a vanity project of mods who want to control users and prolific-posters who want to control narratives.

      Get me a client that only shows one copy of a posted-everywhere article and I’m in. I see most news upwards of 7 times – per article. The Donvict sneezes and I’m reading it a dozen times.

        I would be interested in such a client, if and only if it showed the comments from all my subscribed communities that have the article.
