For example, I want to join a Today I learned community but when I search for it, I come across 4 of them on different instances.
What do you guys do when you see this? Join the one with the most users, join all of them?

I tend to take a look at each one and see if they have slightly different vibes despite similar names. If they’re different enough I’ll subscribe to multiple. E.g [email protected] and [email protected]
Also shout out to https://browse.feddit.de/ for letting you see communities that your instance hasn’t indexed yet. If you look there before creating a new community we should have fewer unintentional duplicates.
Next update should make the community browser a part of lemmy
