Thoughts on a Feed Group Feature?

[Guest]

I'm wondering what you all might think of a feature allowing you to group certain communities you're subscribed to into groups. So like, if you wanted a news group you could put in c/technology, c/news, etc, etc. And then you could switch to that group feed whenever you want just content from those news communities. Would this be practical? Possible? Would anyone use this?

There's an open issue for that kind of thing here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/818

I was literally in the middle of thinking about community groups when I came across your post, I think a lot of people would use this feature.

This isn't a bad idea, but I think my priority in that situation would be some kind of feature the speed suppresses duplicate posts. I sub to multiple world news communities for example because they do get different posts, but also people post the same thing in several communities at the same time so I see a lot of duplicate posts, and only seeing news f.ex would only make the dupes even more frequent because they're not interspersed with other communities.

Yeah, I'm missing this so hard from Reddit
