So much support!
The community has already helped me a few times whenever I have a question related to building Periodly - whether regarding what to pay attention to in the pitch deck, or how to grow the mailing list, or to find a person to speak with.

Challenges solved in no time
Just one example of how efficient this community is: I spent a week procrastinating an important task. And it got solved in just 20 minutes in our community chat! I should have asked earlier.
