What's the best* online community—I include things like work Slacks, project-specific communities, and communities formed on platforms or in the cracks between platforms—that you've ever been a part of? Don't overthink it, what's the thing that comes instantly to mind?

* Most fun, least terrible, most generative, whatever.

Disclosure: I'll never quote you without asking, but I *am* in research mode for a thing that will be public someday.

@ingrid @kissane i was the lead (really only) developer on sissyfight!

@ranjit @kissane ok thanks for a very fun flash game and also for message boards where as a teenager I was taken seriously by adults in a way that really meant a lot at a tender age

@ranjit @kissane also I learned how to do pixel art from those message boards

@ranjit @ingrid @kissane Holy crap, Sissyfight had totally left my brain somehow - thank you for reminding me of it!
