Power mods are one of the main problems with reddit. The same thing is already happening with Lemmy.
This is concerning because it allows for control of what becomes popular content.

Yes, some people complain about duplicate communities but it’s a feature not a bug - it provides redundancy, they can have different spins on the topic and evolution can be at work (badly run a community and it will wither and die while others thrive).
Once we have “multicommunities” it really won’t matter if there are similar communities on different instances, once grouped you may not even notice which instance it’s on without checking. So we’ll have all the pros and few of the cons.
