On this page https://saidit.net/subs it would be nice to have a "1-50 of 226". As is, there's only a "next" button with no indication of how many pages or total subs.

Also, any plans on preventing one sub from dominating a topic? Such as /s/science vs /s/sciences? On reddit, the latter one would virtually never be able to compete.

Darto for example is trying to address this via:

through a Discover page where users can find new and trending communities, a global tag system so one community doesn't own a specific topic

Also, I think somewhere else you linked to a page of your "to do" list, but maybe add that link to this OP?

We actually removed the numbers because we found them useless.

Subs dominating topics is part and parcel of the sub system, it's how it works, for better or worse.

We have the random sub button, that can help people discover stuff. Also the /all page. What do you imagine other than that?

Nope, definitely have never made that list public.

I think what I quoted Darto doing seems pretty easy and great.

For example, instead of subscribing people to all subs, have a page of categories, so when they choose "science" they get a page full of science-related subs to choose from. Probably with the name of each sub should be a short description that can be used to differentiate them.

I think this is a pretty major flaw of reddit that can and should be addressed.
