Gregory's ServerIt’s very interesting and useful. I like your suggestion about making culture part of the design (prompting users to use alt-text, for example).
One thing that I appreciate here and that helped me feel welcome is shared games - they’re like weird little ice breakers, but digitally. For me, that was advent of code, because I joined at the very end of November, so my local feed was alight with people talking about solving the same problem.

So I did advent of code for the first time, and it was fun, and it was shared.
In a similar vein are things like #HashtagGames - I’d argue it’s even better for socializing because we get to share our bad puns and don’t need to hide them like spoilers to advent code puzzles.
Or when #eurovision hit - that was peak.
So I guess what I’d humbly praise and hope we keep up are these kind of scheduled/shared activities.
