With many different Codidact communities and more being proposed, along with other organisations that have their own instances of the QPixel software, it seems unlikely that any single one of these suggestions will be consistently the best approach. Each occasion may have a different approach that would be best, so choosing one approach would make some occasions a compromise.

I suggest that all of the options that might sometimes be best be added to a site admin page where administrators (and possibly moderators - this could be a setting too) can select which approach to use for this particular category.

This is more work to implement, but meets the needs of communities that don't even exist yet, so saves having to make fine tuning changes over time.
