Having two similar communities on the same topic splits conversations, and give posters decision fatigue

Edit: some topics have consolidated their communities to avoid that, example from a few months ago: https://lemm.ee/post/46935805

Edit2: the UK community has a lot of different mod. The .org community only has one, who hasn't been active since 8 days.

The vegan one would be hard, there are like 15 of them!

I would suggest that !vegan@lemmy.vg be the default as it is ran and hosted by actually vegans though the instance version is at 0.19.5 with !vegan@slrpnk.net 0.19.9 a close second.

Everyone from Lemmy.ml, Hexbear.net and Lemmygrad.ml should consolidate into !vegan@vegantheoryclub.org 0.19.9.
