how do we assess the language barrier influence?
Yes I have been following the numbers as well, and we got around 30 user signups on the platform.
How can you tell the quality of the people? Yes, almost all newcomers say they care about at least one aspect of community wellbeing - the environment topping the list. But you only get to know people better through discussions; It may be that the quality of conversations here online are not reflecting the quality of the people’s work - some threads are on standby possibly due to short timing, tech issues -notifications, and I suspect language.
People were drawn with messages in Armenian - they sign up and find almost everything is in English - for the less skilled or brave this already hints at a space that’s foreign - and what is foreign always takes more time to grasp, even when the motivation is there, no?
Anyway, a lot of the credit for the big no. of visits and newfound visibility in Armenia goes to @Enli, @Lili, @Zhanna who took time to help translate and email people in Armenian, so many many thanks gals!
