Thanks, based on the copy I thought it was recently opened to contribution, and the original dataset had come from somewhere else.

I am curious what would cause such a distributed user base to contribute to this though?

[joelkoen]

Distributed referring to the community not yet recognising one specific software as "the go to"? Or distributed physically?

[dangoodmanUT]

Physically! Like how so many users from all over the place decided to contribute to this

[joelkoen]

It is rather surprising how many people have started contributing already. I believe that people want to support alternatives to big tech so they aren't completely reliant on these providers, and beaconDB is currently the only database not owned by big tech. Not 100% sure that answers your question :)

Gotcha, I guess I was asking whether people specifically opted in to contributing to beaconDB, sounds like that's the case
