For example searching for Python I see there is “Python” with 10 subs, and “[email protected]” with 100 subs.
So they are different? Posts in one not visible in the other?
Yeah they’re completely different communities that happen to have the same name.
Kind of confusing, I hope they do come up with an idea to merge them as users scale.
I think the whole point is to keep them from merging. No centralization. That way you can up and down vote servers along with post or block certain servers altogether. Now they might be able to incorporate it some way in the app where you could group common instances and assign your own categories. That would work pretty well.
The one that has an @ in it is one a different instance than the one your account is on.
