Help to crowdsource data for a comprehensive map of Reddit -> Fediverse group? (communick.news)

I'm resuming my work on Fediverser, and I need as much help as I can get to build the Recommended community map. This crowdsourced data will be one the key points for instance admins that want to make use of the Fediverser services, and it will help immensely for people who want to migrate away from Reddit.

How does it work? The front-page gives you a list of all the subreddits with its corresponding recommendations of Lemmy communities. The ones that have no recommendation go to the top of the page. One example. You can open the page for that subreddit entry and make all the suggestions that you think are appropriate.

Every suggestion goes into a queue which I can then review and merge to the main database.

One of the things that I will be adding soon is the ability to request a community to be created. For subreddits which there is no equivalent community, people will be able to fill a form (similar to the "Create Community" page on Lemmy's default client) which will check what is the best participating instance in the network, and if the instance admins approve, the instance can be created right away.

How can you help?

Categorize the subreddits that have no entry.
Reaching out to the mods of the uncategorized subreddits
Creating community requests for the ones that are still missing.

Thank you!

If you want me to help out, I’m gonna need a more mobile friendly design. I can’t use laptop due to disability.

I will see if I can some improvements. In the meantime, can you please tell me if it's possible to work by switching to Desktop mode and landscape?
