So just talking to the universe here . . .

After only an hour or so of "work" I was able to spin up an on-line forum for no cost. And users were able to register and post comments. Yes there is an issue with the registration email getting marked as spam for some users, but not everyone. And this forum is missing some of the features we're used to on CD's forums.

So my question to those here and those who find themselves here from CD, should I continue to spend time working on this?

Things I need to do to:

1. Get a real domain name. Obviously the name of my home brewing operation isn't the best option. That's basically a $20 bill every year.

2. There are upgrades that can be made that give more features that put this forum on parity to what we're used to. Those all cost money, BUT I personally feel the free option is more than acceptable.

So for anyone who finds themselves here - is it worth it?
