Multi-reddits are a frequently requested feature and there's a GitHub issue for them: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/818

Core devs for the most part are focused on existential issues like performance (slow DB queries are responsible for the denial of service attacks that are taking lemmy world down daily) and moderation tools (lack of which are responsible for major instances defederating with each other rather than moderating more aggressively). Unless a community dev steps up to work on multi-reddits, it's likely to sit at the back of the line for a few months.

It's also possible that some app will jump the like with client-side-only multireddits. If that's a thing, I haven't heard about it yet. Maybe someone else will chime in if they have.

Bean for iOS has them. But it shouldn’t be impossible to implement this in voyager, right?

This client looks interesting but community groups seem to be very WIP at the moment. Posts in those groups are sorted by community (some arbitrary amount is pulled), then requested order (new, hot etc) and it takes ages to load so it's probably not very threaded. Regardless, this looks promising and I'll keep my eye on it - thanks!
