I tend to take a look at each one and see if they have slightly different vibes despite similar names. If they’re different enough I’ll subscribe to multiple. E.g !anime@lemmy.ml and !animepics@reddthat.com
Also shout out to https://browse.feddit.de/ for letting you see communities that your instance hasn’t indexed yet. If you look there before creating a new community we should have fewer unintentional duplicates.
Hadn't seen https://browse.feddit.de/ before. Thanks for that!
NP, with the Reddit exodus and new instances springing up we’re bound to have non indexed ones even on your big ole lemmy.ml one
