What is the best platform to build an online community?

Let me start the discussion by saying that PH is a great platform to start building an online community. However, sadly 😢 the downside in my opinion is that most folks are hesitant in trying out new products here! Anyone disagree?

If you want to project yourself as a brand, try out Superpeer, Topmate! If you want to collaborate with other folks as a team to build together, try Wise, Circle!

Nothing is better than Instagram these days. You have a bunch of tools via IG to show that you are active and deeply follow the core tenets of your philosophy which would act like pheromones to attract your audience. Keep entertaining and engaging with them through short videos, story posts and Insta Live. 😎

Building and managing communities is a big task, the first question is who do you want to be a part of your community? Is it students, programmers, etc? Define them, and then go to platforms accordingly. If it's fellow builders, then Product Hunt, or try to be a part of some Twitter Communities, especially #BuildInPublic If it's people who you want to convert as your general users, try WhatsApp or Telegram Community.
