How happy are you with monero.town?

The instance is now over half a year old and so far we've experience decent growth and minimal downtime.

I'm quite happy with it. Even though most content is still on r/Monero, we do get a handful of posts every week.

Since this was primarily set up as a fallback for the subreddit without any spam/scam bots thanks to strict whitelisting I think the initial goal has been more than fulfilled :)

What do you guys think?

It's been great so far. I hope it continues to grow so it becomes more than a fallback. I think it already has succeeded in that to some extent, but I'm looking forward to more on boarding and interaction to the point where most feel they can leave reddit in the rearview for good.

Thanks for your contributions.

Im very happy for this instance and I love using it. I wish that more of the xmr community would switch tho.

Thanks for running it!

is good. I don't visit redd*t.

hope this place grows more. I know it has a big shot once redd*t goes public then the 'shareholders' demand more censorship.

It's great to have a non-reddit Monero community here, you cannot replace Reddit in 1-2 years however the best to do is creating alternative and Monero.town has done it properly I think.

I check it every couple of days and engage when I see someone looking for information or something. So far so good.

@monerobull monero.town has become one of my primary Monero news sources (along with various weekly digests). Keep it up!

Mostly lurking, but love the instance and the fact you can simply install it as a PWA

I rarely look at the site, because it doesn't have push notifications like when using the Reddit app. Maybe we can come up with a solution to get push notifications?
