    this is actually what reddit had to do in the early years. /r/reddit.com was the landing page and main sub, and it made it hard for new subs and content in niche communities to see any traffic. I think they turned it into an announcement space for a while before eventually just archiving it.

        yea, I remember when they added subs. it was pretty needed but even then it took a while for content/communities to diversify from like /r/programming and other things that interest nerdy, techy white dudes.

        edit: my point isn't clear - not having subs/comms allows a monoculture to form. the hope is that people come join this site for something other than /c/main, creating semi-autonomous communities.
