As we finish out the month of September, we’ve got some great member contributions to highlight, multiple feedback opportunities, and some Universe excitement!

Wall of Fame 🤩 : These folks make our category so great !

• @dfosco: For giving an answer and some product feedback all in one reply on repository creation. Thanks @VedantWatpade for asking the question so clearly, the included screenshots were helpful, and for marking the answer ✅
• @shayan0v0n: Their comment on why it’s helpful to make multiple branches in a very easy to understand form - even if you aren’t technical. Great work!
• @jovanovic-djo : When a member asked why their branch wasn’t able to be deleted, @jovanovic-djo stepped up with a heroic answer that included examples and screenshots. Thanks for having the heart of a teacher ❣️
