So I’m assuming the duplicate communities are communities of the same exact name in different instances/server. Is anyone else finding this somewhat confusing?
Is there a way to find/pick the “right” one, or should it just be based on whichever has the most users?
New to Fediverse (here and Mastodon), still trying to wrap my head around the whole thing.
I do not know. For me this looks like a side effect of federation: you gen data from your instance, and it has info about local subscribers only. Anyways, the name of this value is misleading, this is for sure.
