Cool! For new users who aren't familiar with Lemmy, I think it'd be great to see suggestions for communities to join when first encountering the home page. That'd help newbies understand what "communities" are all about, give them get a sense of what types of topics are discussed here on Aussie.zone and help them find and subscribe to some communities of interest.
What do you reckon? Would it be feasible to add a link to few of the most popular / flagship communities to the homepage sidebar, and perhaps a [See all Communities] link underneath? Perhaps there are cons I haven't thought of. Cheers!
