People using their communities to link to like communities because the fediverse/thrediverse is so vast and it’s not as easy to navigate? Maybe, eventually finding a way to consistently open links to other instances/services in a way that opens it in your preferred instance/service (some sort of protocol or extension). Our profiles on lemmy and kbin are even social media themed, it’s almost like MySpace days. It’s so interesting how cyclical things are sometimes. What do you guys think of my theory? I’d love to hear, even if you think I’m wrong!
