Do we? I don’t think we need to. People are free subscribe to either, both, or none. And adding a feature where a community can follow another solves pretty much all issues one could have with fracturing.

Evidence shows that all over the platform there's one community which becomes the main one for a given topic

People are free subscribe to either, both, or none.

Subscribers can, but posters are not going to crosspost their content to all the communities available on a topic

And adding a feature where a community can follow another solves pretty much all issues one could have with fracturing.

That's not even on the roadmap of Lemmy, Piefed or Mbin, is it?
