** Status Update **: Had a very constructive video conversation with LM personnel, who genuinely are taking on the concerns expressed and trying to find timely solutions to support a healthy community amidst their priorities and resources. Not that everything is going to be perfect in any immediate timeframe, but there were understandable reasons for them being where they are and they are finding our feedback constructive in their attempt to implement their philosophy for a solid and healthy community.
As a developer LM has suggested you copy over posts from the old forum, yet you may notice there is no link to the old forum from the developer site, so here it is in case you did not memorize it:
https://developer.leapmotion.com/forums/
Also, as a developer I feel completely cut off from the developer community (not because of the missing link, but because of the old forum being suddenly cut off), albeit straggling one, that had persisted in the forums and having the fear that the approach employed by LM in moving to this system has frustrated those developers, as it has myself, I am hoping that if you are one such developer that you do participate in this forum, if at least only to add your support for expressing your concern towards this unfortunate experience.
Minimally, please like this post and/or the ones where I make my argument to LM about how we have been affected and what actions could help alleviating this concern:
(Due to bugs in Discourse the links could not be included in this post, so they are as follows)
1. Categories: that is it?
2. click on my profile and look for my post "Address developers please!"
