Why impossible?
When you submit URL:
NH offers few general categories in a mandatory field.
OP chooses most suitable.
Homepage provides filters: ALL / CAT1 / CAT2 / CAT3.
Nothing drastically changes, but helps with content consumptions significantly.
For example, I might be interested only in hardware stories, so I'll click on the HARDWARE cat/tag whatever.
