AFAICT while tags are a feature of twitter, twitter's communities don't form around tags. They're a discovery mechanism for communities, like retweets, but it's really the follow "graph" connectedness that defines communities.
Day 1 on twitter as a user, it's very hard to find communities. Day 1 on a site like reddit, I can discover all their best bitcoin content.
I still don't know the main vision you have for SN.
When I found out about SN I took it as a bitcoin focused HN powered by lightning.
Reddit is a general purpose discussion platform. Do you intend for SN to be general purpose? Or should it stay focused on HN type things like tech and science?
If general purpose, I prefer reddit style to twitter.
If non-general purpose, HN with tags would work since the topics are already constrained and there is just 1 single (diverse community).
Of course the latter does not scale to 8 billion people. The question is, how much scaling up do you desire?
reply
I want the benefit of bitcoin and bitcoin infused communities to scale up as high as it can go.

Can a "communities" like r/buttcoin, r/btc, r/cc or r/ethereum exist here? (Hypothetically ofc)
reply
Yes, eventually and hypothetically. But communities here will likely have a cost to start and run, paid in bitcoin.
