  • Hi and welcome! Sometimes responses come in quickly around here, but sometimes conversations on Beehaw are a little more asynchronous - it’s not exactly uncommon to get a response several days later (at least in my experience). I think part of it is just that there’s less strife than that other site, so fewer people are anxiously/obsessively checking every few minutes.

    Personally, I like to browse Local>New first and then switch to Local>Active - catch up on what’s new, and then dip in to some conversations. At first it felt a little weird not having those hyperspecific niche topics, but I actually kind of love Beehaw’s “big tent” approach to their communities. You’re sure to find them represented somewhere, but the times I’ve posted in !creative or !diy (for example) it’s been really nice to chat with people who haven’t been exposed to things and be excited with them.

    And definitely chime in on the weekly threads! We want to cheer you on when things are great and bolster your spirits when they’re not.
