Definitely check this one out, OP. It's fantastic.
"A Fire Upon the Deep" and "A Deepness in the Sky", both by Vernor Vinge, are great too.

Kagi's "quick answer" gives me a better result:
Quick Answer
The countries in Africa that start with the letter K are: Kenya Kazakhstan [1]
[1] List of countries in Africa in alphabetical order
Though I don't know if that's because Kagi has fixed it in the last half hour, or some other factor. Still not a great answer. At least Kagi doesn't show it by default, at least with my settings.

I'm not really sure that a K/V service is a more scalable option than Postgres for storing text posts and the like. If you're not performing complex queries or requiring microsecond latencies then Postgres doesn't require that much compute or memory.
People can get unnecessary scared of relational databases if they've had bad experiences with databases that are used poorly, but attempting to force relational data into a K/V can lead to the application layer essentially just doing a less efficient job of the same types of queries that the database would normally handle. Maybe there'll be some future need to offload post and comment bodies into object storage or something but that seems incredibly premature.
Object storage for pictrs is definitely a fantastic addition, though.
You do have the option of using whatever you feel is best in any particular circumstance. There's no reason you need to commit to one of vim or vscode for absolutely everything, and being familiar with a few different tools can be helpful.
For example, if I'm working closely with a team that primarily uses vscode or a jetbrainz IDE then I tend to switch to that since it makes collaboration a little easier.
Expecting communities related to a certain topic to coalesce on a single server doesn't seem like a good idea to me, but having some kind of community metadata would definitely be nice. As you said it'd be useful as a way to filtering out certain topics, and it might also be handy for community discovery.
I prefer the current behaviour.
It's easy to open a link in a new tab without right clicking. You can middle click (Windows and Linux) or command+click (MacOS). However there's no easy way to force a browser to open a link in the current tab if the site wants to use a new tab.
