  Couple things I think would have to be added for this to work. One would be tagging communities based on the content in them so these subscribe lists dont have to be constantly manually updated and instead can be set on a community level. Then would be handling for taking in the category from the url and saving that so its used later when they sign up (I dont think base lemmy would want to integrate behaviour from the pangora site but it could be integrated into instances running pangora)

    eh instances don’t have this either and yet you associate instances with these tags, I think a hardcoded list is fine and it doesn’t need to be anywhere near complete or perfectly up to date, just a starting point or suggestions

      the difference with instances and communities is theres 1k instances and 30k communities. Communities are also created and removed as a much faster pace than instances and there would be different lists per instance

      Going to be making community flairs anyways in pangora so can just add it on
