π€ Hello, another week in Rosieland!
One thing that I've noted lately is that there are a lot more people talking about world of community. And I can't seem to escape the chatter of Web 3. π
With so much going on, I'm going to put less in this newsletter (even though there is still a lot!) and opting to put all my weekly finds in the Rosieland curated Notion (buy access or get access as part of a Rosieland paid membership) whilst also cross-posting things to our Discord.
Overall this stuff is increasingly becoming more time consuming. I think it's time to revisit the whole existence of Rosieland. π
π Upcoming event
Community Created Content β βMost of us probably know about UGC β User Generated Content. βBut what about Community Created Content or Community Generated Content? This week I'm hosting Β this as an opportunity to explore what this might mean. Come along!
π Community Tip: People can pay to participate, not to consume content
Don't let people make you think that you have to put your content behind a wall.
Anne Helen Petersen currently puts out all her content for free, but then makes weekly discussion threads for paid subscribers. [Source]

My proposal for web3 projects that try to build communities on Discord.
— Cagri Yalcin (a.k.a ezetec) (@cagriyalcin93) November 21, 2021
Projects want to reach out to real people, create belonging, and go to the moon.
But in general, they are struggling with bots, fake accounts, and the pressure of reaching enough (a lot) people and NGMI.π§΅

Developer Advocacy is a tiny bit of being a PM, QA, software engineer, technical writer, video producer, community manager, and so much more wrapped into one job π

DAOs will learn the hard way that structurelesness is a tyranny.
— sariazout.eth (@sariazout) November 18, 2021
For everyone to have the opportunity to participate in a group, the structure has to be explicit + the rules of engagement open and available to everyone.
Who is building DAO tooling? I want to back.
