I’d like to have a way to group communities in different feeds (the equivalent of multireddits?).
Anyone happen to know of an app that has that feature?
I’m on iOS if that matters.
There are feeds in Piefed
Lemmy’s API doesn’t have a direct way to do that, unfortunately.
Tesseract (web-based lemmy app) used to have that before I took it out. After the ranking metrics were removed from the API, it was hard to sort them other than by new/old or by score. When you have a mix of active and inactive communities, it didn’t work great without the ranking metrics being there.
You can still group communities, but only for organizing them or (in the dev branch/next version) applying filter policies to communities in that group.
I may revisit the idea if I can figure out a better way to generate/sort the custom feeds.

This feature is planned (and I think already implemented) for Lemmy 1.0. I think we can expect it later this year.
I’ll have to be on the lookout for that!
I think I’ve seen people say this is a thing Piefed does? Not sure about the details of how it works exactly.
Summit lets you create multi-communities which I think is what you want. I haven’t tried it so I don’t know.
Oh sorry android only :(
I haven’t found a good solution to it, so I’ll give you a bad solution instead. If you need five stacks of communities, you can make five accounts and use each to follow specific communities. Like, one account for sports communities, second one for memes, third one for politics etc. it’s not an elegant solution, but it gets the job done.
Yeah, that’s what I was planning to do if there wasn’t a better option.
