I would like to see some kind of “canonicalization” feature in Lemmy to support this, similar to CNAME in DNS.

For example, [email protected] recently merged into [email protected], where lemdro.id is the canonical server.

So it would be awesome if [email protected] was entirely equivalent to [email protected]. But as it stands, the lemmy.world community had to lock and everyone had to individually migrate themselves.

Essentially, in a case like this, I just want to call it !android (or c/android) and not need to care about which server it is hosted on. But as it is currently, I always have to reference the canonical domain since it is different than the one my account is on.


and doesn’t even need a discussion.

The assumption that anti-corporate is the unanimous opinion of everyone here is false. I have and use apps from Meta. This is a topic that very much needs discussion.

I for one would appreciate federation with Meta. We can always defederate if Meta actually does something objectionable. But I see no reason to defederate before we actually know what federation with Meta looks like.
