I guess so: there are competitions, and prices to be won.
That makes sense. I really just forgot all about it.
I don't believe that we will get an influx of people coming here after AA: Initial outrage is over, and things are going on on reddit as before.

That’s disappointing. I don’t think I’ll go back, which I guess means no more shaving community for me. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.
I'm off Reddit for good as well. Maybe be like me and join the Discord server if you're missing the shaving community and don't feel like going back to Reddit. It's also nice to stop reading so much about wetshaving which really cuts down on the FOMO and the shaving purchases. I've been really enjoying the stuff I have and I'm also working on killing more soaps which is nice.
That’s an interesting idea, I’ve never used discord. I’ve mostly done a good job over the years of not going crazy with my purchases, but the temptation was always there, so good call on that.
We'll see how things will work out - maybe in September, everybody will turn up here.
