If the number of comments were also the same I would lose my mind.

    i think moderation could still be done the same, with a community-on-instance set of mods. so you’d browse tags on an instance, see posts that are tagged across the federation but with mod rules applied to that particular instance. like a view of a post from your particular version of the tag.

    i’m not suggesting lemmy be changed to allow this, but that there is room for a new system that works with tags rather than communities.

      At that point, Lemmy would no longer be a Reddit like site. The experience would be functionally very different, probably more like a federated Tumblr.

        yeah i’m not sure that the reddit style is actually optimal for a link aggregator. also i don’t know about the tumblr thing either, their tags system is way more loose.
