Anniversary

Hi Community :woman_raising_hand:t2:

Today (8th April) we’re celebrating the 1-year Anniversary of our new forum home :partying_face:

Since our move from the old Vanilla forum to Discourse we’ve been through a lot together.
We’ve laughed, being sad, shared country specific clarifications and have experienced little wonder.

We’ve seen submissions from around the world:
Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, North and South America.

We’ve been where feets are getting wet and on the top of mountains.

Not every discussion was full of harmony but our community have always been happy to help, help, help and help.

I’ll end this topic with two of our earliest threads on the new forum. Our first "general discussion" and our first “wayspot appeal”.

I hope you’ve enjoyed our journey so far and that we can add many adventures in the future :hugs:

Any thoughts? Let them out!

You are better off that you werent on the old one! It wasnt very pleasant. The reboot has been really successful in my opinion and this forum has remained quite a friendly and helpful place

And talking of cake, we will need a lot of it over the next 12 months.
Since the new forum started we have had over 73k wayfinders join…they didn’t all arrive at once :sweat_smile: but have joined during the year. Most read and dont post - it would be very noisy if they did post. In fact a over 5000 different wayfinders have posted - thats a lot of people to say hello to, but I know that the community offered a lot a great welcome and a huge amount of support.
How did that shape up, well…
There have been over 7100 Topics :open_mouth: with over 61000 posts.
Just wow

Most (not all) of the over 2100 accepted solutions were in the appeals area.
Its been good to see the Wayfarer Team as part of the forum. :grinning_face:
