Apologies, I realized my mistake too late, I meant to reply to Josiah On Wednesday, 7 June 2017 20:16:24 UTC+1, @TiddlyTweeter wrote: > > Ciao Duarte > My concern with SE, is coming from now being in it.

Post a question, wait for a reply, upvote, downvote, there is nothing complicated bout it, google alsi indexes pretty well making it easy to find relevant content. Have in mind that this is an implementation phase, as A M Alfaro mentions running the regular website later will be a lot simpler and hassle free. It will also be easier to access (direct URL) and probably have a cleaner UI with dedicated help sections, users list and shortcuts. It is a tried and true method that has worked well for countless other sites,stack overflow and superuser probably representing the epitome of the system, and their success can't be denied. I am a frequent user of Blender Stack exchange and can say it has been a really pleasant experience. Addicting even! Whether it will work well for TiddlyWiki or nor is another question entirely. I also have my doubts, mainly concerning the audience size, I fear there is not enough critical mass from raw user number, and from the point of view of proficient users capable of providing them with quality answers. Now don't get me wrong, I love this community, and wish only to see a tiddlywiki stack exchange success, but only time can tell if it can.
