If I were building a community client, I would only show active communities on the home page. Otherwise it looks like a bunch or random dead communities.

And if do what Reddit did with r/all on the home page with latest popular notes
+1
Maybe sees them with automated periodic content if there are not enough posters (to encourage discussion)
I had this exact experience trying to find interesting communities in a client.
It makes sense

Yup I agree.
For kiwi, the home feed for “discover” is sort by activities. The communities tab is sort by which user has joined.
Adding now another sort by activities for communities tab.

Done. Sorted communities by activities.
With more activities, it will have better representation.
Let’s see if more people will mingle in this new mode of communication (ie communities)
And if it does, future work is having a backend cache server and endpoints that does the sorting based on multiple complex factors.
Totally agree.
Communities tab can be improved a lot for more engagement.
