What is the difference between a category and a space?

Just getting started and I want to get the mental model right. A category seems to be a grouping, and a space is where the actual posts live — is that correct?

When should I create a new category versus just another space?

Appreciate the clear steps. The dry-run tip in particular saved me from a mistake I would not have caught otherwise.

This is the answer I wish I had found six months ago. Would have saved me a weekend of trial and error.

We ran into the same situation last quarter. What worked for us was starting small and only adding complexity when a real need showed up.

Adding a small note: the same idea applies on mobile, just with a bit more attention to tap targets.

Could you say more about how you measured the result? I want to try this but I am not sure what success would look like.
