What groups would you like to see reinstated? ๐ฅ
๐ช Hi Similar Worlds ๐
As many of you know, we've been merging and reinstating many groups.
While the most popular groups should be covered, some of you may have old favorite groups that haven't been reinstated yet.
I'd like to ask you what old Groups you'd like to see reinstated.
And also, if there are new topics that aren't yet covered by any existing Group, feel free to suggest too :)
Topic > Category > Group ๐๏ธ
We have recently restructured the way Groups work on Similar Worlds, to help reducing fragmentation (often times, there were +1000 groups on the same narrow topic) and help users finding more posts based on their interests (by us improving the Feeds, or users going directly to the category of their interest). We can, finally, soon start promoting and growing SW more. We did not want to promote a site that was so very disorganized and fragmented.
The organization consists in 3 levels:
๐ก Topic - Broad general topics/areas Example: Entertainment & Music https://similarworlds.com/entertainment-music
๐บ Category - Slightly broad topics and interests, within a specific topic Example: Entertainment & Music > Music https://similarworlds.com/music
๐๏ธ Group - Very specific single subject Example: Entertainment & Music > Music > The Beatles https://similarworlds.com/music/beatles
How can you find Groups ๐
You can find all Topics and Categories by pressing the [Topics] menu in the SW header, or by accessing this page: https://similarworlds.com/topics
To find Groups, you can either use the Search or by accessing the Associated Groups of a specific Category.
Example: Associated Groups under Music https://similarworlds.com/music/groups
Mute Groups ๐
One of the most requested features by our Members is to be able to mute groups.
It wouldn't make sense for us to implement this feature, when there could be 1000's of groups of the same subject that users could post on. You may be muting several groups, but there could be many more that you may have missed.
However, with the Groups consolidated, it's much easier to block a specific subject that you aren't interested on. It is important that users post on the correct Category/Group, for this to work, and as respect to other users.
To Mute a Category, press this button in the Category page:
To Mute a Group, press the same button (worded "Mute/Report Group") in the Group page, and follow the same process.

Thank you for your support and we hope you continue to stay with us.
We are constantly listening to your suggestions, so please keep giving them to us, as they are very important to the future of Similar Worlds.
Very kind regards, ๐งก - The SW Team

Could you please restore the "I Like Mashups" group?
This was one of my favorite groups and I occasionally posted some videos there that I thought were particularly well done. It's a unique genre of music that is deserving of its own group and fans of mashups will be able to find them more easily if the group is reinstated.
