Lemmy community sidebars need more "related communities" links (lemmy.world)

Most communities are not the sole community related to their topic, there are really often other communities on the same, or similar topics.

An example: there are a tonne of art related comunities, but only a small handful of them have links to other related communities.

It would be great if there was more of a culture of propping up semi-related communities. This would be particularly useful for helping more niche communities get rolling.

I would love to see some more artistic and visible appreciation for related communities in the sidebars. Something like the old webring / affiliate banners that websites had in the '90s (88x31 IIRC), even!
