Not surprising I suppose, but I was hoping a few more people would come over from Reddit.

I'm not too upset about this though. Less content means I'm not doom scrolling. No longer on Twitter, no longer on Reddit. More hours in the day off a screen.

Might head out to the Xmas in July event. I was there yesterday but only noticed the paella as I was leaving.

Is this just a mindless stream of consciousness? Maybe. But we've got to post and interact here if we want to build traction.

Hope you all have a lovely sunny day.

So nice to have /r/canberra created here

We enjoyed Ice Skating next to civic library/canberra theatre on Saturday. Went there for the snow play but they delayed due to snow maker issues. They said it would be fixed and ready on Monday (today). we did not know they cancelled due to all cancelled notices to yahoo emails bounced

Xmas in July was also very enjoyable too

Yeh, it will take time. Probably worth spruiking this community as an alternative in the cbr subreddit from time to time as some users who may be on the fence about trying somewhere new may just not know of AZ as an option.

Hello. I have never been to Canberra. Is this the next best thing here?

Fancy meeting you here! I sometimes check out other cities communities because I'm genuinely interested in what goes on outside my neck of the woods.

It all lives or dies based on content creation. If people keep posting on Reddit then it'll live. If the content creators leave then it's all over. That will be the tipping point. There's no point boasting about users if there's noone to create the content
