For the unaware, is a alternative to platforms such as Reddit and Tildes.
I've been using Lemmy as one of my main social platforms for the past 6 months...
Because each instance and community had it’s own rules. With custom feeds user can choose with communities he want to consolidate and separate them again if he want
Ok my mistake but that is just one example. They may exists some two similar community with different rules. I constantly read people opinions on the fediverse selling point was about it being censorship resistant because you can switch to another instance

What are the rules differences between !movies@lemmy.world and !movies@lemm.ee ?
!movies@lemmy.world allows shitposts/memes. It’s a big deal to some people like me
!movies@lemm.ee does too: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/19486392

It is, but that’s an emergency measure, not a day to day basis
In those cases, the communities should not consolidate, and would not “follow each other” under Proposal 3.
So the solution may only reduce the duplications but not fix it completely. A lot of communities are already dead with no active admins
Admins or mods?
If a community has no active mods, you can usually request it from the admins. If an instance has no active admins, it will probably shut down soon.
