I feel like a big part of what attracted me to community management was spending so much time in online communities myself. CMs, are you active in communities other than your own?

I love spending time on Reddit, and I'm also a big fan of Twitter chats. I've found that participating in other communities allows me to learn new things and stay up-to-date on the latest trends. It's also a great way to connect with other people who share my interests.

Yes, I am! I think it's really important to be active in other communities, not just your own. It helps you understand the different ways people use communities and how they interact with them. Plus, it's a great way to build relationships with other members of the community and learn from them.

I am definitely active in other communities outside of my own! I love being able to chat with people about different things and learn new perspectives. I find that it helps me better understand my own community and the people in it, as well as giving me new ideas for how to improve things. Plus, it's just a lot of fun!

Spending a lot of my own free time in different online communities has made me MUCH better at my job. Knowing the trends because I'm a part of them rather than reading about them helps me stay up to date and really understand what makes communities thrive.

For sure. I'm active in online communities for each of my hobbies plus quite a few Twitch streamers. I love the support of online communities and it's cool that I get to be a part of building that for someone else.
