I miss multireddits, a workaround I found is to create accounts on different instances and subscribe to different communities with each account ie

News trabic@lemmy.world

Memes and other bullshit trabic@lemmy.one

“Math” trabic@lemmynsfw.com

Then just login to which ever one I’m looking to browse. I don’t think this will screw with the fabric of the fediverse, is there any reason I shouldn’t?

    I feel like you’re using multiple accounts in a rather creative way, but at the end of the day it isn’t too different from the “normal account, porn account” system that people already use.

    So it’s likely fine?

    I know it is not the main topic of discussion but, there is a discussion on Github about multi communities, if you have a GitHub account please upvote it, or you could add a bounty to it.

    I had the same idea after i spent a bunch of time subbing a tons of communities on one account and then realizing actually i want to just look at regional news and politics sometimes and keep all the aww and meme type stuff separate.

    I don’t think there’s anything wrong in doing that, if you wanna keep things separated and there are currently no tools to do that with only one account then i think there’s no reason to not go with the multi-accounting approach if you want too, as long as it isn’t a spam level thing

    Plus, some clients like liftoff even make that easier by supporting being logged on multiple accounts simultaneously and being able to easily shift between them
