Thank you for this meeting, which will undoubtedly allow us to get to know our two communities more humbly.

The #fr community is composed of a majority of people who speak French. They come from different backgrounds, whether they are Belgian, Venezuelans, Canada (Quebec), Maroccans, French and many other countries represented. Our group is doing quite well and is growing thanks to the emergence of several initiatives existing on Steem.

We have in our midst witness such as @arcange, @evildido, @teamsteem, @lux-witness who work for the network and interact with the public. We also have a whole network of curing materialized in the form of several guilds: @francosteemvotes (of which I am the founder with other distinguished members), @aidefr, @steemalsace, @steemquebec, @steemstem all gathered under the banner of the initiative @frstars . Some of us are even @ocd members.

But that's not all, because tools and initiatives have been created by the members who also work in this section: @cleanplanet for ecological preservation, @grenouille which offers an interactive story to enrich every day, @DTube which was created by a French-speaking team, @busy one of the frontends for the steem network, @comprendre-steem wich provided some helpful tutorials and many others that I forget and so I apologize for that.

Although some tragedies break out here and there, the community is quite present and remains attached to the section. Lately, we have been experiencing a small decline in activity, which is probably due to uncertainty about the future of cryptography. However, links have been created to the point of creating a core group of active users who feel involved. All these actors are working hard to promote Steem to Francophones!

If you want to know more, I prefer that all these nice people come to you and introduce thereself !

And currently the favourite dish is raclette, a dish made with cheese and cold meats of all kinds. Something very consistent to face winter well !
