Announcing "subreddits" on Nostr

Hey everyone — my initial implementation of the NIP-172 draft proposal for Reddit-style moderated communities is now live on Satellite!
Want to see an example?
Check out n/satellite - a nostr community I've just created for Satellite-specific questions, feature requests, etc.
Do you have an idea for a community for which you'd be willing to take on the role of founder/moderator?
You just need to decide on a name and fill out the info for banner image, description, and rules. I'm working on creating a directory of communities, but for now, please drop a link to your new community as a reply to this post.
If we can position nostr as a credible alternative to reddit it could be huge.
Here's some screenshots:

consider a NIP-31 `alt` tag here, nostr:npub1lunaq893u4hmtpvqxpk8hfmtkqmm7ggutdtnc4hyuux2skr4ttcqr827lj
love what you're doing here!
I wasn’t aware of NIP-31, that’s interesting…
It’s definitely important for discoverability that kind 1 clients are able to display notes posted in communities - the way I handled it in the current implementation is to prepend the title/link to the content string, and to automatically insert inline references to events when posting a link to another Nostr web client so that they appear as quoted notes.
I wonder what the current client support is for NIP-31? Could I just put the text with the prepended elements in an alt tag and count on clients displaying that as if it were a kind 1 event?
Definitely want to make sure that these communities don’t lead to a fragmented UX between Twitter-like clients and Reddit-like clients.
Hopefully we can have a twitter-like feed with notes that show up properly and have references like “posted in this community”
