Seeing a big “politics” community in both lemmy.ml and lemmy.world just confuses me as to which I should be subscribing to and I don’t really want to subscribe to both.

Guess this is just a downside of federated instances? There’ll never just be one “/r/politics” on Lemmy?

    Yes it is annoying. And you have to create a new account on each instance to interact.

      What? You can subscribe and post to all of them from any instance just fine.

      No you don’t. Federation means you can subscribe and post in a community on one instance with the account from another instance.
