These are all really good answers, but yours really nailed it for me. Such a fascinating development and change in infrastructure. Thank you for such a well thought out and informed reply.

Lol, I look forward to good results by the end of the year? Maybe not the best algorithm after all.
I personally don’t have one particular way of discovering new music. It’s a mix of suggestions from different apps or friends. Shazam during movies and TV also helps guide some discoveries. Also just clicking through a rabbit hole of suggestions and marking stuff you like for future digging.
Maybe mention and link to the community so the appropriate people can do more than guess at what you even want?

All I found was companies and other countries that were trying it out.
I feel like it would be big news if that was an option for people seeking employment anywhere.

betabob@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you think would improve your Lemmy experience?421·1 year agoI still think this is the biggest issue with lemmy right now. There should be a way for communities that are identical across instances that can connect where a post would be cross posted and connected with links to each instance it’s connected with.

Deep rock galactic looks like a fun game. I have several friends who play it but haven’t had the opportunity to pick it up yet.
betabob@lemmy.dbzer0.comto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience?1·2 years agoSure, but I feel like there is still fluctuation and more often than not a varying degree of activity and posts that it makes it hard to stick to just one (identical) community for now. I’m sure it’ll settle over time though.
betabob@lemmy.dbzer0.comto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience?1·2 years agoThat’s pretty cool, I haven’t tried out Kbin yet, might have to check it out!
betabob@lemmy.dbzer0.comto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience?2·2 years agoSame, on many topics. How would I know which community will have the most activity, or none at all. It’s my biggest issue here. Not a deal breaker, but annoying.
betabob@lemmy.dbzer0.comto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience?1·2 years agoWhy couldn’t one of the communities abandoned just be dropped from the ‘group’ then. Or have Moderators from several communities work together to moderate a larger one. They are still federated, just working together. If one becomes obsolete, defederate it or let it be. Why should I have to be subscribed to the same topic several times to find the discussion?
betabob@lemmy.dbzer0.comto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience?4·2 years agoThat’s a fair point, but one wins out usually, where with the lemmy numbers they seem to remain split with the smaller communities.
I’ve been on lemmy for several months now and most communities are completely split and activity on any given ‘news topic’ (as an example) varies widely on 0-50+ comments for the same topic popping up on the feed from several identical communities from varying instances. (Which is why grouping might be an alternative solution)
betabob@lemmy.dbzer0.comto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience?3·2 years agoI was just addressing my concerns with Lemmy, for now. One of my suggestions (grouping communities) is one that could solve some of the issues with op’s questions.
betabob@lemmy.dbzer0.comto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Doesn't each community being local to each instance split the audience?11·2 years agoI don’t feel like that answered the op question. As an example, every general ‘gaming’ instance that is federated can see each other, so I subscribe to every one I can find, but then I get some posts four times in a row (or more) with varying activity. (Hence the split community point).
I wish communities could be grouped in some way.
Either they go by the wayside or take control of a topic as of now.
Also, what if I’m subscribed to the community that isn’t the active one, I have to constantly find new ones to keep up instead of just my feed for that topic?
Edit: part of growing the community has to be ease of access to content, that still seems limited on lemmy, for now
Same as on desktop, ghostery is great (the extension for Firefox)
I wasn’t aware of prime games for free for other platforms as well as the hero launcher that works in the deck! You just changed so much for my deck and future gaming experiences, thank you!
