Sorry about deleting the post. Couldn’t remeber if beehaw was one of the instances with rules again dissenting opinions after some time away from Lemmy (I’m pretty sure there was one which would rather be without).

But I think you managed to quote most of it.

Being wanted/needed should be viewed in relation to everything else you could do with the resources available is my point. Not only your particular hobby/interest.

Identically named does not imply identical. Could be totally different communities with the same name. Or there could be subtle but important differences.

But it is entirely orthogonal to naming. At the end of the day abc@instance1 is a different name than abc@instance2.
