Quick community check-in for today. Please keep the open forums link-free and be kind. Thanks all.
Friendly reminder: keep it kind, no vendor links
noted on the links, though it's the kindness part I lean on most. Half the reason I still check in at 48 down is how steady folks here are with each other.
tbh keeping vendor chatter out of the open threads is why I still check in here. The compounded talk stays in its own lane and nobody gets pitched at
Being able to ask a dumb question and get a real answer back instead of a pitch is the whole reason I stuck around past month one.
Good to hear the no-links rule is holding, that's the whole reason I stuck around past month one
Good reminder. I lurked for weeks before posting anything and the answers I got never felt like someone was working an angle.
The part about nobody making you feel stupid is what kept me here too. I asked some real beginner stuff early on and got plain answers back, no eyerolling.
I lurked for weeks before posting anything and never once felt like someone was trying to sell me something. That alone kept me coming back.
honestly the plain answers early on were what kept me reading here instead of spiraling over every weird symptom, so yeah, worth protecting.
Been lurking since day one and the no-links rule is a big part of why I stayed.
I mostly lurk but the no-links rule is why I keep coming back. Nothing worse than a support thread turning into a pitch.
noticed the same thing early on, nobody steering you toward a product just answering the actual question
The no-pitch rule is why I finally made an account instead of just reading for weeks. Nice not getting funneled somewhere every time I ask something.
