    This is also my understanding of it, part of it makes sense due to like, resource usage reasons. If your members don’t have an interest in a community, there’s no need constantly getting fetch data for all available communities and posts/comments in them. I do feel like there’s probably a better way of doing it, though I can’t think of one at the moment, so maybe there isn’t. Lemmy is still early development software, so hopefully it will continue to improve in this and other ways as things continue to move forward.

      A better way would be on demand API requests. API is there. Very little cost in snatching that when a user goes into a thread and caching it if needed.
