@Ljubomir Bardžić time and sequencing. We had to first make the marketplace work. Community is a growth and retention mechanism. Now that we feel confident that the marketplace is working, we can leverage the community to grow. More importantly, a functioning marketplace answers 'why'...

@Gajus Kuizinas Totally agree! With the slow downfall of Dribbble and AI slop taking over LinkedIn, I'm glad that creatives have a new community to participate in, that will also help them advance their careers.

@Gajus Kuizinas the closed testing with beta users really help evolve the community page design into a more clean, focused and minimalistic based on the above reference

@Gajus Kuizinas seems the community has been in development and was in mind at the very start. I'm so glad it's here for everyone!
