yep, it's not a deal breaker just something to consider. I think NotABug does it both ways, they have topics/tags that can be part of a space/sub.

yeah, but in that model, unlike the tumblr/twitter model, you have to crosspost if you want to put your post in more than one topic

I think likely there should be limits on one user adding subject tags to a post, maybe 2 or 3. The point of other users adding tags is it allows ideas to spread but also maybe more appropriate subject tags to accumulate.

The good thing about the tag based subs is it will prevent repeat instances of the same sub like we have now, as there will be no reason to split communities over mod issues because they are gone.
