I would like to see recommendations for communities based on my communities. It's not trivial to solve, but discoverability isn't great right now.
Recommendation algorithms are a big reason for the enshitification of other social media. You don't need to be connected to everything everywhere all at once. Enjoy your handful of small communities.
I don't want random posts to appear in my feed from communities I haven't subscribed to, but I want to have a feature that shows me suggestions for communities when I ask for it. That's a big difference. Right now it's (too) hard to find these communities.
