I've seen some general dissatisfaction around finding communities, would having the search also check for matching keywords in the community descriptions improve things? (sopuli.xyz)

I'm just floating an idea that someone inspired in a comment section elsewhere, it sounds like an improvement to me but maybe people don't like this idea, tell me what you think.

I think that would be great. However, the issue for me isn't so much finding it as it being really annoying to actually subscribe.

Yep, I have no idea why I can or cannot subscribe to one or the other community. I really want to support these communities by adding content and commenting.

Yes, I think that would help. Ideally there would be a check box option to enable or disable that feature.
