I'm not a developer myself, yet I frequent this forum. I did so even in the past, when I was less active. Partly because I looked after different communities, so reading up on the developments in here - for a long time - was part of my daily (and later weekly) routine.
Also I need an audience that still understands file formats, a niche - if you will - to mount some resistance against making those "exchangable" at one companies whim. ("Look - two new features!")
Also - dont shortsell this forum. Even with all the negative campaigning against bringing up any issues at all - this topic got enough views to warrant my time.
Let facebook groups marvel about an "asymmetric" design, a few more 2 cent LEDs and the same display they got sold three years ago (also ostensibly the same UI, btw), I'm aiming at a different user. I _dont_ want you to catch this, while you are trying to entertain yourself, reading through feeds made out of catchy headlines that prompt upvotes. But instead only if and when you are willing to invest some time in contemplating those developments.
Let Amazon hardsell you designed wants, I'm soft"selling" a version of reality that becomes more apparent by the day. But I need a place to do so.
Btw. why did you even bother to quote me, when your response was that none of it matters to people in this specific subforum? Yours by the way wouldn't be the academic argument, its the worry of the magistrate about his neat little universe getting disturbed. Also the bane of marketing I might add..
But lets not drift into bickering again - I'll stop right here.
