If they want to move r/rust to Lemmy, then just pick an instance and move, or start your own instance if none of the existing comms matches their needs, instead of all of these excuses.
Again, it’s really hard to get this through people’s head, but Lemmy is not a reddit clone, every instance is an independent forum each with their own different policies and moderation. If you don’t like the comm of one instance, you can easily move to a different comm on another instance with the same topic.
For different comm on the same topic to follow each other would honestly be a moderation nightmare, which is why I’m only supportive of user level community grouping (which would be more along the line of having multiple subscribed tabs. )
There’s still a lot of people who will always stick to Reddit as well (as evidenced by a good amount of hostility in the comment section of the Reddit discussion on /r/rust).

Programming.dev sounds like an excellent instance for it.
They have opened an instance there, but the problem the author discusses is the split of users between it and the general rust community on lemmyrs
