    Great article Dru! I’ve heard Founder Summit is really good.

    Thanks for the great year! πŸŽ‰

      πŸ‘Š Thanks @BraydenTW

      Had the pleasure of hanging in Mexico City with some of the folks before things went crazy. The online community is cool too.

        Best of wishes for the future! πŸ™ƒ

      @BraydenTW can you link to the summit? Tried to Google it, but there seems to be 100s of Founder Summits.

          No affiliation, but curious as to why https://wip.co/ did not make the cut in #0014 or #0045. Did I miss it?

          Pieter Levels and several makers hang out on WIP, which is run by @marckohlbrugge.

            This can always be a comment. If 1,000+ paid communities are listed, someone can ask why 1 was left out.

            They are in Trends PRO #0045.

        Thanks but it's pretty confusing. I would suggest Dru provide unique titles for trends else someone like me may think he is repeating himself :)

          Yes I was confused at first as well. Adding "part 2" or "revisited" would do the trick.

          1. 1

            Yes, I felt exactly the same.

    It's interesting that many (most?) of these communities (Trends Pro, TailwindCSS etc) are an extra that people get when they purchase something else.

    There's a product they want, and the community is a bonus. Not saying they wouldn't just pay for that community, but I think there's a difference between that and pure paid communities (no product).
