I’ve just created an account here after the Reddit API pricing stories started going around. Not really ditching Reddit yet, but thought I’d start looking at what else is out there.

    Hi! I’ve had an account here since November, but just started using it yesterday for the same reasons as you.

    Hello! I’m obviously not from Iowa, but it’s great to have you here. Let me know if you have any questions.

      Well, it so happens I was a Wisconsin resident for a few years – longer ago than I’m eager to say, but maybe it will suffice to say I watched Paul Molitor and Robin Yount play at County Stadium!

    Likewise regarding the reasons for deciding to participate here. I’m in Ames.

      Two of us now, time to start a Ames community?

        Hey, I went to college in Ames… almost 30 years ago!

    Hello, I am also migrating from Reddit. I liked to use r/Iowa and r/DesMoines to keep up with what’s going on around me. I hope this community and the Des Moines one can fill that void.
