Now here’s the bigger issue. Lets say I can click a button, and now a home instance, and all its communities could be saved to a special drop down tab that replaces the local. Your instance is always the default, but the rest are alphabetically listed.

I don't think I understand. You mean choose a local view of a different server? That would require every instance to duplicate everything on every other instance. Not possible.

What makes Communick.News different from Lemmy.World?

It's a paid instance. I pay a subscription fee to ensure it won't die do to lack of resources.

The idea isn’t to centralize the instances. The idea is to theme them.

What benefit would themed instances have. You can't follow an instance....
Oh! That's what your trying to do! You want to be able to see some logical grouping of related communities, and follow that! Now I get it.

Yah. That's not the way to do that. The "MultiReddit" concept is what you want for that. A shareable list of related communities. That'll work regardless of what instance they are hosted on. Multi-communities are on the pre v1.0 list already
