If an experienced user can use SEDE to help the find-a-site search feature make better suggestions, that would be worth expanding on. If SEDE can only help a new user with "rad skills" do a more advanced search, that's less useful. | |

| Dec 11, 2023 at 21:48 | comment | added | Jeffrey Bosboom | I think you want to search across all sites' tags. Searching for "climate" would find the climate-change tag at Earth Science, but also at Politics and Skeptics, and the climate-science tag at Physics, and perhaps more at other sites. Would that help you? | |
| Dec 11, 2023 at 13:10 | comment | added | Marijn | Another way of finding a site is by browsing through the list and reading the names and descriptions. In that case you can speed the process up a bit by looking a a specific category on the site overview page. For example stackexchange.com/sites#science-name lists the 24 sites in the Science category, which is easier to browse than the full list of 182 sites in the dropdown. | |
