Blorp dev here. It doesn’t. I totally understand that many Lemmy communities can feel too quiet, but I never fully understood the consolidating comments thing. I believe Lemmy and PieFed both associate posts based on url, not post body, title, etc. Only the url has to match.
Now imagine you had a conservative community and a liberal community, and they both shared the same news article. However, one community was expressing support for the article while the other was expressing disapproval. Then in the comments, people were saying “I agree with this take”. How would you know if they were agreeing with the conservative or liberal community’s perspective of the article?
If communities could mutually express they want a combined view or could be useful, and you could mark comments with which community they’re in (but each whole reply chain would need to be in the same community)
Blorp for piefed and Lemmy
Does blorp support showing crossposts the way that PieFed handles it? (Displaying comments from each community on the post).

Piefed has the name of the community as a separator before the comments :

Multi communities are coming to Lemmy V1 and already exist in PieFed as feeds. But I don’t think communities opt into those.
