[Feature Req] Implement client side multicommunities

One of the features I really miss from the snu site is multireddits. It would be really handy to have a similar feature available in boost that can aggregate posts from multiple communities into a single feed view.

There's Home (Subscribed), Local, and All views. If I open All, I can see posts from communities all over the Fediverse, even ones that I haven't subscribed to.

Is that what you're looking for?

- I'm interested in custom buckets of communities so I can build topic views. All, Local and Subbed aren't granular enough to do that.
  
  It's probably a feature Lemmy itself should support on the instance but client side feeds would be nice to have until they get around to adding proper server side multis.

  Yeah, Mastodon has lists, so it's definitely a feature that is possible to add server side.

- Multireddits are like having multiple customizable subscription feeds. E.g one called "Consoles" which is PSVita+Switch+SteamDeck+Oculus, or one filled with nothing but subs with cute animal pictures.

  Gotcha. That makes sense why that might be handy, if you have a lot of communities you keep up with.

- No, what op is looking for is ways to group things. Tags may be a good analogy.

  Mastodon "Lists" is a close analog, I think.
