European Union hub r/europe r/2westerneurope4you r/yurop r/europeanfederalists r/askeuropeans r/askeu .eu europe.pub is not specific enough and in fact it's full of useless posts and subs (or btw every european server could host one of these and then have a shared simple landing page to explain which is where)

Kinda agree but I’m not so sure about the egg or the chicken first

Belonging is very important and there is clearly a dominant techie culture in generalistic instances right now

Of course we can create another large set of sublemmies for new people to think that they may post there, but then it becomes apparent, why Ernest from /kbin has named them Magazines, and not Communities...

I will spare you guessing: with so much "community" names and few people using them "comms" become just categories to post and follow. It may work for a social news website (as it was a primary format of Digg and then Reddit), but this will not replace Reddit as place for discussions.
