Would you like it to grow so all of your other, non-technical interests could have active communities? Do you want more people for moral and philosophical reasons? Or are you enjoying being in a niche? Are you happy to have a platform full of techie individuals, even in communities not explicitly tied to anything techie (much like this one)?

My answer to all of these is “yes,” so I’m not quite sure what I want. What are your thoughts?

I like it how it is. There are a lot of us who are non-tech. I see enough cat posts and cannabis-related posts seem to be increasing recently. I could use more knitting and crochet content and more 3d printing would be nice but I'm ok waiting for those to grow slowly.

I could provide some knitting pictures specially for you. But unfortunately I have no interest or skill when it comes to knitting so I bet it's better if I don't. Plus I don't think my GF would like it if I started messing with her yarn.

What kind of yarn stuff does she do? You could share pictures of her things.

Honestly, it's been quite a few years s8nce the last project, so she doesn't remember what it was.
