Yes. Because there’s no centralised list of communities, searching is extremely difficult.
Or if not, very time consuming.
Following every iteration of every node.
The best way I can think of at the moment is a searchable website that gives you a link to click to seamlessly subscribe to them directly.
It’d be fine if the website is user submitted rather than having to interrogate all the servers on the back end, because the results would have seen a human eye and be better quality.
In practice right now it can be a bit schetchy tbh. Finding and subscribing to them is flakey and searching can be a bit hit and miss too.
When it does all work both smoothly and seemlessly then we’ll be golden.

I’m not sure how that can be overcome.

That’s cool. I’ll check it out. It still worries me a little that then communities can become very centralised.
Still, better than some alternatives.

Yeh. I think there are websites that do that already. I haven’t really looked. But has to be some form of centralised list.
