Discoverability in this context meaning the ability to more effectively find public communities/people of interest. Alongside improving this however, respecting people’s decisions on whether and how they may be found, if at all.

A global communities search that’s integrated into all lemmy software. Meaning like i would go to a communities search bar and type “politics” and it’ll show me all /politics communities on all instances, sorted by subscriber count.
And all communities should have a button right up at the front that’s labeled “see similar communities”, which would take you to that search result page.
EDIT
Apparently the search part of what i said already exists, but it’s hard to find and requires techie skills to make it function the way i described. So the feature should be made easier to find and should default to an all-instances search instead of a local server search. And a “see similar communities” button should be added to automatically get to it.

Love the idea is a “similar communities” button but I don’t know if I’d say searching communities is really that hard.
