Instead of algorithms why don't we create a map of Lemmy? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Instead of focusing of creating good algorithms to push certain content to users why don't we focus on creating a good map that allows users to find the kind of content they want more easily?

I found this website that created a map of reddit with different countries for different topics and I thought it would translate to lemmy because instances sort of do this already really well.

¿Porque no los dos?

I think this is a good idea. Discovery of new communities is one of the worst things about Lemmy today and a map might help with that.

But having a good default front page is also good for users' experience.
