"Separate conversations are splintering discourse, we should all just shout over each other in one massive wall of text!"
The separate communities across instances is a benefit of federation just like separate posts are a benefit over a single thread for everythjngs. Yes, features that allow them to be combined for those that want that way of interacting is great, but we don't need a single news community between all instances when there are can be massive differences between instances.
Exactly. This is a non issue and actually a feature.
