    Definitely! The big reason I decided to join Beehaw after taking a look at what instances were available is because the focus here seems to be building that feeling of community more so than just replacing Reddit, and I’ve already been feeling it in the best way. It’s almost like a return to the days of forums where there were actual conversations happening, and I’ve actually slowly started recognizing names and avatars as I poke around in different topics. I’m not sure what things are going to look like further down the line, but hopefully it keeps developing in the way it has been! I do think it will, for what it’s worth, since the admins and mods seem to be on the same page and dedicated to keeping the momentum going in that direction.
