On one hand, this makes it feel like a game… who’s leading, who’s been here the most, etc. But on the other hand, I feel it’s really important to recognize everyone’s contributions. I’ve [said from the beginning](https://forum.podcaster.community/t/whos-it-for/321) that there are many ways to “belong” here and this topic (auto-generated for me by Discourse) points out a **LOT** of contributions that would otherwise go unnoticed.

Thank you, @craigconstantine for making this a welcoming, open community.

Happy New Year! Here’s to another year of podcasting success.
