Description
Hi
Since a few weeks, i've noticed my front page have some local post that i didn't see before.
i went to reddit and see they have added a dropdown with your country, and to see the old front page you need to switch the dropdown to "global"
Then it set the URL with a ?geo_filter=GLOBAL
I've tried to add a custom location with /r/popular?geo_filter=GLOBAL but i have an "invalid subreddit name" error.
Is there a way to allow the geo filter setting somwhere ?
Thanks a lot

Research direction
Start by tracing the /r/popular request path and the app's settings entry point, focusing on how the geo_filter=GLOBAL query parameter is handled. Done means users can select or configure the geo filter and the GLOBAL value no longer produces an invalid subreddit name error.
