Solveit community is so nice and wholesome that I see many comments being dismissed as astroturfing, well maybe HN is not used to this but I can tell you all the people in there are for real.

You can take my case, I started writing and posting videos after taking the solveIT course because you are encouraged to do so. Many people on the community have started to do so, and that's why they might not have much of a history yet.

Moreover, the course is such a good experience that when there's a chance to share it publicly and invite more people to it (after a year of private beta), members go out of their way (into HN) to try to invite more people.

I have seen all the people you mention in the discord and chat with some of them so I can tell you they are real.

Because once again, my comment might sound like astroturfing, you can have a look at my youtube & X where I've been posting about this stuff for quite a while
