I think meetups and discussions about community belong on LW, but occasionally these seem to presume “we’ve figured all these things out, now we just have to spread them”. Even the usage of “we” can be dangerously setting LW readers apart from others. If there is an overarching goal to a LW-based community, it would be better framed as how to be a capable and informative group that others would be interested in than how to attract people per se.

Yea… Still, there’s WAY to much of it relative actual content.
