I’m diving into Lemmy, been on Masto since 2019. Also a big Reddit user trying to get away, and I hope to find a feature here that’s an equivalent to MultiReddits (or ‘Custom Reddits’ as they seem to be called now).
The idea is: A way to view a collection of specific Lemmy communities, probably around a theme like gaming, wholesome topics, or tech, etc. Sometimes I like to focus on a specific corner of the internet instead of the flood of everything I subscribe to. If you need examples, here is my personal gaming multireddit and my HappyPlace multireddit (no not like that).
Is this possible with Lemmy? Thanks for any help.
As far as I know, it is possible on piefed since a recent update - you may want to check it out!

If you want to get a gist of what it looks like, https://lemmy.world/u/mesamunefire maintains one for PeerTube and other Fediverse videos:
Yep! It works really well!
Plus the feeds can be used for threads not necessarily just on Lemmy/piefed/etc… but also mastodon/peertube,/pixelfed etc. Works closer to a big RSS except any interaction like upvotes/downvotes, comments and others. It’s very well thought out.
You can do it in the threadiverse but that would be on PieFed not Lemmy.
It isn’t with lemmy. The two main solutions is either to use Piefed. Which is a desktop only software that federates with lemmy and has this feature.
Or if on mobile, have a couple different accounts of different instances and use each as a “multireddit”.
That would be great. I would love multiple custom feeds.
This would be good for instances if a default custom collection could be added to the “subscribed, local, all” selection.
Then an instance could show the content it wants to represent.

A bit if a workaround, but can potentially achieve that
