Favorite communities
Pin the communities you use most to the top of your list.
What are favorites?
A favorite is a community you've marked so it sits in its own section, above the rest of your list. Nothing else changes: you keep the same roles, channels, and notifications. It only affects where the community appears when you go looking for it.
Favorites are useful once you've joined enough communities that the two or three you actually open every day are buried among the others.
How favorites work
Your communities appear in two sections: Favorites at the top, and All communities below. On desktop, this is on the New Tab page under the Your communities heading. On mobile, it's in the community drawer.
A community appears in one section or the other, never both. The Favorites heading only appears once you have at least one favorite, so nothing looks different until you start using them.
