There's something interesting about how people discover projects like this one—most catch on after everything's already built. But if you were in the community early, you'd know it was different back then. The Discord wasn't a marketing machine yet; it felt more like an actual workspace where people were genuinely building and figuring things out together. That's when Chapter One really took shape and gave the whole thing structure. Early birds saw the organic ecosystem before the hype cycle kicked in. That's the real story nobody talks about.
