Reddit Nintex Community

I admit I'm not a Reddit person, but why would we want to advertise another community, that from the looks of it doesn't have much content, when we already have an established community with a ton of content and answers?  I don't see the benefit.

Well, Vadim's blog existed before there was a Nintex community in all fairness.  And by bringing up stackoverflow or any other forum you raise the same question I asked.  As I stated, I'm not a Reddit user.  But in just quickly looking at your link, it looks like it does the same thing this community already does.  Why not just ask the questions here?  Maybe there is something I'm missing.  

Having a presence in several web communities is good for users and good for Nintex. I actually ran into that subreddit previously (I'm /u/TheJobCannon) and was sad to see there was nothing in it.

I understand both sides here. 

I think the benefit of the Reddit community would be to show other reddit users (who possibly havent been into the community before) what can be done with Nintex, AND, the end goal of leading them to the Community. It is not there to replace the community (as if it could!) but act as a direction / index / quick link to the community. ALL PATHS LEAD TO COMMUNITY! 

There is software that I have learned about - and methods I have learned about - by running into it as a reference on Reddit. When I'm Reddit, I'm browsing casually. When I'm in the community, I'm looking for a specific answer for a question I have, or I'm looking to answer questions.

Different environments.

That being said, the subreddit needs work, but Richard Ruth‌ knows this  

Suggestion ... add some CSS to it and a bunch of  quick links to the community, to the learning center, etc? 

Happy to help out if you'd like to make me a mod in the subreddit. I did some of the CSS in /r/resumes & /r/jobs - I mod them. Simple, but stands out, and I can do some cooler stuff for you. Lemme know.

I will go harass them now if they're around -- and if they aren't, I'll put in a plea to the Reddit admins  Will let you know how it goes.

I agree with that.  The community can be a bit overwhelming.  Definitely need to find a way to make things a little simpler. 

I think I just got voluntold. 

‌ ‌ I don't interact much on Reddit, but lurk a decent amount. I'd say there's a lot of value there in terms of content sharing there that links back to this community (ultimately growing this platform while reaching a large audience).

I like it! The more we reach the more we teach!

My two cents-- for what it's worth-- is if there are users going there and asking questions, then by all means, we should keep it open and try to assist them. 

The main issue that I see is not whether or not it should exist, but rather are users going to go there and answer questions, make content, repost/link to other content? As I have said before, most of all have jobs that require the majority of our time and effort, so coming to a community (here or Reddit) is something that we do on our own for various reasons. It is hard to keep up with multiple areas and contribute to them equally. I have a hard time keeping up with twitter, facebook, my kids... 

We live in an age where we are bombarded with information and can access it through a multitude of venues. There is no reason that I can think of that would suggest that we ignore it or forget about it. As Rhia Wieclawek‌ stated, I would think that we point users from Reddit to some content within the community, and have them engage here. 

I will bookmark that Reddit and take a look at it more and see where it takes me ! I am always up for learning from other users and if I can help someone, I am helping myself too!
