How should we deal with similarly named communities? (kbin.social)

Right now there are similarely named communities across the fediverse.

"fediverse@xxx", "Linux@xxx", "asklemmy", "askkbin"..etc...

I'm on kbin and I'm having a hard time figuring out how to use the fediverse more productively, by reaching the largest amount of people for asking questions, solving problems, simply put: to engage... like I used to do on Reddit?

Reddit isn’t setup to federate, it’d require a lot of backend overhauling that they can’t afford.

I probably agree. It's also unlikely, given that the entire reason many of us are here is that Reddit didn't want anyone having ad-free access to their site.

Unless, they only did it for the express reason to eat Lemmy, then slink back into their hole. I think Lemmy is much more EEE-susceptible than Mastodon.
