With the recent decision to defed. It got me wondering is there an RSS of sorts to get a feed of activity on different communities across different instances in a fed/defed agnostic way? (self.chat)

It's inconvenient to have to hop between different instances to see what is going on, and it would be nice to just be able to aggregate it all in someway like the equivalent of multisubreddits in events where defed happens.

One hypothetical being

lemmy/c/PatientGamers@sh.itjust.works+technology@beehaw.org+Futurama @lemmy.world+Android@lemmy.world+RetroGaming@lemmy.world+PC Gaming@lemmy.ca+Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film/.rss

Being able to customize the feed you see regardless of where you are signed in or not signed in would make it so much easier to juggle different accounts depending on the policies of each, and stay connected with the communities you want. Would also make it easier for instances to be able to defed without worrying as much on impact on users to create the space they want.
