I also found this GreaseMonkey script that simplifies the entire process by allowing you to redirect any community to your local instance: https://sh.itjust.works/post/70143

This really simplified my workstream for adding new communities. There is also a script to reformat the site to look more like old Reddit if you are really wanting to feel at home. Some great work being done in that community.

That was my thought as well, or assumption. I’m new here so it will take a bit to figure out the duplication model and what floats to the top, but I’m in for the adventure. =)

Even if a community exists for the content you seek, how do you determine the one that is going to grow? There could be a different version of that community on every server, which is the area I’m struggling to find content. Join every alternative is an option.

Unless there is something I’m missing. Quite possible as the federated approach is all new to me.
