> e.g., There are Cleveland Browns fans who've visited reddit every day for years and don't realize there's a r/clevelandbrowns community that they'd love, not to mention r/cleveland and r/foodporn or whatever other communities they'd dig.

Maybe use IP address geolocation to suggest subreddits during onboarding?

They already do I think? At least the default subreddit list (or whatever it calls - the subreddits shown top of screen) includes swedish subreddits when I'm not logged on.

Yeah, when the new defaults were added 4-ish months ago, they experimented with some country-specific defaults. I think they only set it up for Sweden though.

Edit: Actually, Kenya, Sweden, and Singapore. http://www.reddit.com/r/bugs/comments/27rxzs/strange_subredd...
