I'm wondering what you all might think of a feature allowing you to group certain communities you're subscribed to into groups. So like, if you wanted a news group you could put in c/technology, c/news, etc, etc. And then you could switch to that group feed whenever you want just content from those news communities. Would this be practical? Possible? Would anyone use this?

This isn't a bad idea, but I think my priority in that situation would be some kind of feature the suppresses duplicate posts. I sub to multiple world news communities for example because they do get different posts, but also people post the same thing in several communities at the same time so I see a lot of duplicate posts. And only seeing news f.ex would only make the dupes even more frequent because they're not interspersed with other communities.
