I don’t think I’m understanding this right cause it sounds like you’re trying to make it more fun by adding more rules. If there are 20 groups that are all about pickles that’s fine they each like running things their own way. Eventually one group gets popular and that’s where the majority goes. I think your frustration could better be solved with something like tags where groups could choose to associate certain tags words that makes search easier like tag: pickles-fermenting-homemade-cucumbers and that could clear up search from people just wanting to share pickle Rick memes.
I like the idea that tags could facilitate a sort of one-to-many and many-to-one relationship structure, where a pickle community could say it is related to "Canning" and "Cucumbers" among others, and potentially populate in the feed of someone interested in prepper stuff or in the feed of someone interested in vegetable gardening. I'm sure I'm not using the DB terms correctly but they feel indicative of the modular structure this could allow.
I like this flexibility better than the idea of a consolidation of subs into one themed silo, but I could be misunderstanding the structure of the mulit-reddit proposal if it allows for this.
