This is a reasonable question to ask, but it felt a bit unkind so I downvoted. I think it’s okay to post things that are clearly framed as “here’s the vibe of our community” and not “here’s why we’re impactful” and I wish you’d at least acknowledged that was the aim of the post before requesting more info.
When I wrote the comment, it wasn’t clear to me what the aim of the post was, and I thought Rockwell’s reply clarified this. I just misinterpreted “accomplishments” at the top as being about impact rather than community. So I’m now glad this post exists, though citing metrics still bothers me a bit.

That’s fair. I agree accomplishments probably wasn’t the right word for this kind of post.
