God, I love this place. Instead of having to navigate through a mob of idiots to express an opinion or have a discussion, it's simply informed, quality discussion from top to bottom. What a good feeling, almost gives me hope for humanity
Cherish it now haha. If this place ever gets a lot more popular, youโll start seeing all sorts of dumb takes and behaviours again ๐คช
That's why I'm feeling a lot better about the steady rate of growth here. At first I just wanted to get everyone over from reddit ASAP, now I'm like okay, I could get used to the small town vibes with a bunch of cool people.
It's going to be an amazing journey as this place continues to grow. Just remember to laugh at the inevitable drama and cry at the bad memes. Never the other way around ๐
Small town vibes is exactly how Iโd put it haha. I tend to recognize a few posters here and there. Just like at my townโs post office ๐
I recognize a lot of people already but that's probably because I'm terminally online ๐
