Hello everyone, new user here. I’m liking the site so far, specially the technology communities.

One thing I noticed that there are far too many communities for a significantly low user base website. There are 1075 Communities as the right sidebar shows. I feel most of them are created to park community names only not for purpose of any discussion. IMO is not good to have so many communities at very early stage, restricting community creation till the userbase of the site has achieved an arbitrary number big enough to sustain such large number of communities is better.

    Thanks for responding. The name-squatting part is why I asked the question. Scrolling from last page of communities there are many abandoned ones with same admin. For example TheTinkerer has 20 communities under him - like Microsoft, iphone, tiktok, CIA, IMDB, Hollywood - but has zero activity on the site.

    I’ll transfer communities whose creators have left to anyone who wants them.

    this is appreciated, maybe add some restrictions on new users too. Just my opinion.
