Your explanation on how communities evolve is spec-taco-ular! I imagine you can stop that evolution if you want, right? For example, you can cap membership, like Jay Clouse has done. Or, you could have exclusive sub-communities within your bigger community, right? Like shoving wedges into your larger community evolutionary ecosystem. But I guess those are luxury strategies. For someone like me who can't recruit enough community members to fill a couch, better find myself a better wedge.

Interesting to know that there's also a trillema on community. Was thinking it's only a blockchain issue😄
These are great perspective you've laid out here David and I look forward to testing them out
Really like the example - thank you for sharing that.
Curious how you think about a community that wants to continue growing in size still keep 'Connection' as a high value?
