Glad to see you again! hope all the edumucation is going well :)
I see lots of potential in this platform itself but I think it will take time and effort to get there. The one thing I think many will take away from this platform and should often focus on is the friendships and information gained. Many of us here are forward thinkers of a sort so relationships can pay off in all sorts of ways.
I've said it before: reputation is the real currency on a decentralized network. And reputation does go a long way to popularity here.
