Could instance descriptions be visible in table layout?
Could the one line descriptions of each instance be shown in the table layout? E.g. you could show a row of table cells with an extra row below it which showed the short description of the instance. This could be togglable so it didn't take up space for people who don't want it. I think this would make the table view much more useful for people who are looking for an instance with a particular interest group in mind.
Are you talking about /list/old (legacy) or /list/advanced?
I meant the advanced view. E.g. something I would like to be able to do is generate a list of instances in English, sort it downwards by number of users, and then browse through looking for ones that sounded like a place I would feel at home. You can't do the last part easily unless the descriptions are visible in the table, rather than having to click on each instance separately.
Will look into something like being able to click on an instance row and the row expands so that the description appears, or something like that. Having the description always visible might be a bit too much.
