Just starting to familiarize myself with everything after about a decade at reddit. I understand that you can view content across instances but I’m noticing that both kbin and lemmy have similar (competing?) magazines/communities.

For example @PCGaming and !pcgaming (lemmyworld) but then there is also, @pcgaming, !pcgaming@lemmy.ca, etc.

Do I have to subscribe to all of them? Or are there “official” fediverse communities?

As I said, I’m still trying to figure things out, but subscribing to so many similar communities seems cumbersome for the user and (imo) fragments userbases that are literally talking about the same thing.

Thanks in advance!

    I found there’s generally no issue in just subscribing to a lot of magazines, all the content curates itself in the main feed and I’m not seeing too many distress duplicates cross instance
