Multi-communities is completely clientsided because Lemmy does not support them yet on the server. This means that the client will need to manually fetch the list of posts from every community in a multi-community. So if there are 30 communities in a multi-community, the client will need to get the post feed for all 30 communities in order to load the post feed. A limit of 30 is placed on the list to prevent the client from hitting the Lemmy servers too hard and also so it doesn't take forever for the feed to load.
Unfortunately I will not be making this number configurable in order to respect all of the Lemmy servers. Otherwise the client will DOS the servers.
Yeah that's understandable. Forgot they were client side.
