Thanks for teaching me. I can see that causing challenges down the road.
For example, I'm always on the lookout for all things quilting. If someone names their quilting community "Fabric Hordes" (not impossible, just look at phenomenon like r/animetitties) it wouldn't come up in my explicit searches, and is very unlikely to be sought out or found by others in my instance.
Right, but there are lots of ways around that.
There's already been a fair amount of demand for some method to group communities by interest, so it's essentially guaranteed that somebody is going to provide some way to do that, and likely multiple somebodies are going to figure out multiple ways.
