For me its having a single instance that indexes all the communites to which all other instances can then pull that information from so when I go searching for communities the I’ll have access to every single one with needing to post the entire URL in the search bar

That’s already a setting. Show Read Posts

Oh thanks I missed that in the settings. Although I am an not a fan of it auto marking it read for me. It is nice for the meme communities where there are many posts and I am probably not going to review them again, but on like a technical community I may want to return to a post and see if anyone posted comments/updated.

I guess I could look into saving post I may want to review again. I don’t know I will have to play around with it.

Having to group communities is going to be fun when there are hundreds of instances with the same communities. It would be nice but I would also like if all similar communities were already merged so you see the same content in all of them, maybe doing it by name but that wouldn’t catch all of them so it would have to be manual, that’s quite the task.

Maybe have the ability to share a group you created. This way communities could have a link a community maintained group in the sidebar or something.
