I'm interested in this from a research point of view.
How do you define a community? I'm guessing you just use the technical "meeting place" in cyberspace as defining the boundaries plus a topic, say people who like fishing, people who have a particular sexual or political orientation, or people that believe in a particular religion; is that correct?
How do you _name_ communities? "Vegans in Austin, TX", "kids that love LEGO", "Pentecostal Christians on Reddit from r/evangelical", "East Coast independent voters" or "Global spicy Thai food connoisseurs"?.
There could be real value add by bringing people from the same community together (= aggregating) that are scattered across different online places.
yes, you're correct — in this case however, the platforms themselves do most of the work to define what a community is for them (some platforms, like bluesky, don't have the concept of communities _yet_) - I just collect them...
in general though, the goal of this tool is the one you're describing: aggregating communities that have the same topic/niche across different platforms

I searched for 1 community, got an error. Reached my "free" limit and was asked to sign up :(
