May I say something? (taking his [JB] hat off for a moment). I've been with many communities since my inception into programming – school, local, regional, global. I've seen a lot of elitist communities, guru-driven clubs, and some warm and cozy environments which are, unfortunately, very rare. I'm really happy to be part of this Kotlin community, both quite big and still welcoming, which we built together. Even some hot #C09222272 discussions are still entertaining, doesn't expose any hate even when parties are at disagreement or annoyed of each other, and provide enough input for both parties to be valuable. Even if these three members were chosen by the community to be most helpful, I believe that without everyone else they wouldn't get there. This is entire atmosphere of making something great together, spreading knowledge, improving over what we know that makes this community so great. Even when it's not about Kotlin at all 🙂 ([JB] hat on) Congratulations to the winners and have a nice holiday, whichever holiday you have 🙂
