The Stellar community stands out for its high level of engagement and collaboration. Across various social media platforms including Reddit, Telegram, Twitter, as well as its own Stellar Development Foundation, XLM supporters actively participate in discussions, share insights, and offer assistance to fellow community members in the Stellar universe. The community has a positive and inclusive environment, encouraging freedom of speech and constructive feedback making it an excellent community for anyone interested in learning about and contributing to the Stellar network.
The Stellar community should also feel privileged to have their feedback and suggestions listened to by the Stellar Development Foundation and these feedback and suggestions can often be considered in the project's decision-making process according to their website. I would say from reading posts within project’s community that its community actively support initiatives that aim to bring banking services to the unbanked meaning the projects values are in line with the community’s which is what every project wants to see.
One of the stand out feature of Stellar’s community is the Stellar Community Fund (SCF). This is an open-application awards program based on community input which boost development for startups and developer projects built on Stellar. Since the SCF was created over 210million $XLM have been awarded, to over 415 recipients and its community now has over 2,600 members.

One final mention in regards to Stellar’s community is how the project likes to not just attend global crypto events but also put on its own big events for their community. An example of this is at the end of September 2023 the SDF are putting on an event called ‘Meridian’ in Madrid. This event will have an unusual speaker for crypto in Idris Elba. During this event they will be exploring the theme Unlocking Human Potential, which sounds like an interesting topic to explore with other key speakers such as Stellar’s CEO, Denelle Dixon.
