Some topics have fewer available groups - Try broader keywords like "business" instead of "micro-saas" - Remove language filter to see more results - The tool gives you all available groups matching your filters "Can I use search keyword and category together?" - No, these are mutually exclusive - use one or the other - But you CAN combine language filter with either option - Examples: "Tech category + Spanish" or "AI agents keyword + English" "It seems slow" - Larger numbers take longer (that's expected) - Your internet connection affects speed - Usually still very fast compared to manual browsing "What's the best way to find specific communities?" - For broad topics: Use categories (e.g., Money, Tech) - For specific topics: Use search keywords (e.g., "AI agents") - Add language filter to narrow down results further --- Need help?
