!weedtime@crazypeople.online continues to be the largest community we host. I've been happy to see it branching out to be more than just memes as others have joined in building the community. It's been great seeing people posting their plants and sharing various weed related experiences. It's a vibe.

!loweffortmemes@crazypeople.online sees irregular activity as a catch all for reposted and OC memes that might not fit elsewhere. There's no specific theming or posting requirements and it's meant to be an easy place for people to break the ice when the itch to post something silly strikes. Always happy to see new content here!

!eternalplaylist@crazypeople.online has been seeing more and more activity lately. New people are stopping by to post a song or two and there are a few regulars who post a few times a day, sometimes even more. The music here is a mix of everything- genre, language, etc can be just about anything from instrumentals to meme songs and non-english tracks. We try to keep it loose to encourage participation.

!pokemonTCGM@crazypeople.online has slowed down a bit. The most recent packs are "reprints" of other sets with some alt arts and whatnot thrown in and while I can't speak for others it's certainly taken some of the wind out of my enthusiasm sails. I'm hoping the next release is something more exciting that provides better motivation to post.

!autoracing@crazypeople.online has been mostly dormant for a bit as I work through some other projects on and offline. I still have plans for this community to become a hub for multiple series but unfortunately for now that project has been put on hold as I take care of some things outside of Lemmy. At the moment I barely have time to watch the races let alone build a community for them, but eventually things will settle down and I'll get back to it.

Instance wise, CPO recently broke the 100 member mark. While the daily active users are fairly low it makes me happy to see the service get used and new communities springing up and being engaged with by the fediverse. We also recently rolled out the MLMYM and Voyager interfaces after a request from one of our members for alternative front ends. They can be found at https://old.crazypeople.online/ and https://voyager.crazypeople.online/ respectively.

Hopefully everyone is doing well! See you around! 💚
