You could group the dimmers f.i. using the [Device Capabilities app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-advanced-virtual-device-device-capabilities-app-with-unique-text-status-indicator/68198).  
When any dimmer is changed, they all follow and get the same value, when the ‘Calculation’ is set to “Mean”

Note: the “BLL Expression” is cut-off in the screeny, it is `Math.round($value*100)`

When you want a Lead/Follow setup, use the main dimmer to set the dim value of the grouped dimmers
