I reserve the word "community" for people I physically see often, at least once a month. Virtual communities are never as grounded or fulfilling. It's a mistake to use the same word for both.
- icebraining 10y agoOkay, so what do you call a body of people who do not fulfill that criteria?
- golemotron 10y agoPeople longing for community.

- icebraining 10y agoIt seems like you're talking about a specific kind of community, which isn't really what's under discussion here, in my opinion. The open source community exists in the same way as (and partially overlaps) the scientific community.
