As members of Just About, you have an association of some kind with at least one brand or community. You're associated with Just About simply by having a profile here, but you might also be a passionate player of EVE Online, or Final Fantasy XIV, Minecraft, or one of the many other games we discuss on Just About Video Games. Perhaps you create content on Twitch, YouTube, Medium, Substack, or one of many other platforms, or maybe you’re a vocal in the communities of your favourite streamers. What do these types of association mean to you?
On the one hand it's possible to play a game, follow a streamer, or otherwise enjoy a brand or community without being vocal about it, minimising your association with them. On the other, for many folks, these associations can be powerfully rewarding and a part of their identity.
Do you wear these associations like a badge of honour, displaying them proudly on your various social accounts, or are these things private to you? How, if at all, do you like to signal your participation in these brands and communities, and how do you feel when they recognise your participation?
Let us know in the comments, and feel free to share your brands / communities of choice!
