As the Pug said: saying yes to too many things.

And not doubling down on what actually works, but rather testing too many vague ideas at once for my project.

Agree with Marc. I personally really like communities built on Discord, Slack or Telegram.

• Discord and Slack since you can chat about different topics in different channels.

• Telegram since it's so minimalistic and smooth to use on both desktop and mobile.

But I would probably also run the community on something like Facebook or Spectrum (or have a separate site like this one) for more ongoing discussion etc. but not post as frequent.
