What do you notice about the comments on this post? https://piefed.social/post/555259

The post was made in the [email protected] community and other posts linking to the same news article were made in [email protected] and in [email protected]. 3 different posts in 3 different communities.

PieFed de-duplicates them and only shows the post once in the timeline and when viewing the post all the comments on those 3 posts are shown in one place.

The fragmentation problem is solved.

    It’s a little bit not-obvious that the top comments are from [email protected] here

    Maybe they should get a header just like all the other communities do for their sets of comments?

    the comments from the other communities actually stand out more than the comments of the current community, due to the headers, without the header the comments just kinda blend in

      Yes, somewhat. But viewing a post usually doesn’t happen in isolation - before coming to this page the viewer will have just seen a teaser of the post, containing the community icon and name OR have been browsing that community. It’s not as bad in context.
