I may be preaching to the choir , but I just wanted to say THANK YOU to the instance moderators and owners.

I really appreciate the welcoming attitude that a lot of our threads hold. I really like the freedom of expression we can have, as well as the disagrements that have helped broaden my worldview. I love that this is slightly more currated to our location in the world, it really helps connect local news with the people that might miss it if you’re only scrolling the large social media networks or countrywide news outlets.

I am definitely biased and might be unaware of some problems, but to me the content and members here actually make me want to participate in the conversation.

So uh… yeah. Thank you.
