  • Monica, I don't know if you are still looking for answers, but in case you are...
  • Questions:
  • >1) How did I discover MY?
  • I honestly don't remember. But if I had to guess, it was via googling some stuff and MY showed up in the search results.
  • >2) How did I discover CD (is that the proper abbreviation?)?
  • I found CD through [a post](https://judaism.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/5554/do-we-want-to-be-a-community-again-how) ("question") from Isaac Moses. This story actually surprised me, since I had seen your name all over the site in my recent searches and was surprised to find out that you had been gone for 2 years. I looked into that story and read up on everything that happened back in late 2019. Eventually I saw a mention of this site and came here.
  • If all of your users are coming here the same way, it would be very hard to grow this community. I think one way that could garner serious traffic to this site would be by utilizing SEO, so that CD would show up higher in the results, even higher than MY if possible. That might make the difference that you are looking for.
  • All that is only regarding landing users onto this site. Regarding my experience here, I am still brand new on this site. I haven't even been active on MY until about a month ago. My experience on MY has been mixed; I find that most mods are courteous, although others moderate the site seemingly based on their personal opinions. That means that sometimes questions are quickly closed as duplicates, even when they are clearly not; and then not reopened when the question is updated to state very clearly why it's not a dupe. On the other hand, I think the experienced users that I have come across over there are all very friendly.
  • If I were to remain here, I would want to see at least the same from mods and users here. I will only get that feeling once I participate more in this site, which I plan on doing.

If all of your users are coming here the same way, it would be very hard to grow this community. I think one way that could garner serious traffic to this site would be by utilizing SEO. That might make the difference that you are looking for.

All that is only regarding landing users onto this site. Regarding my experience here, I am still brand new on this site. I haven't even been active on MY until about a month ago.
