We are coming to an end of the second year of c/superbowl, and I think we’ve had a really good year together. We’ve covered a ton of great topics, and we’ve got a pretty good group of people commenting on a daily basis. A lot of people have been hanging around since last year, and we’re still doing well overall in the list of active communities and we’ve grown by about 50% since last year. There’s a lot of people recommending us whenever I see a “what communities are must subscribe?” list.
We have a lot of fun, we learn a lot, and I hope we feel a better connection to the world around us.
I’ll post some top whatever lists below in the comments to look at some of the things we’ve done and some of the things you may have missed.
