About feeding this competition,
I was thinking...
We all went from here to other forums. TMO is far less active than before.
Would we invite people from these forums to participate to this competition?
It worth what it worth but would that be an idea?

The question is, where have they all moved to?
I know that there are some on discord. There is also a quite familiar atmosphere. Even so I dislike discord, because it's a mess.

On the Sailfish OS Forum is as well some communication. But at least for me it doesn't feel like home. It's more or less a technical forum without personality.

Yeah, where?
I tried discord once but I was totally lost. A bit lazyness,I didn't went back. If you say some moved there and it feels familiar, I'll try again.

It's true that FSO has less warmness, jokes, humanity than here, and more complaints. And this doesn't always mean more technical progresses though.
Up to us to make it change, maybe?

EDIT: btw what...channel (?) on discord have they moved on?

In the end the discordchannel is dedicated to F(x)tech and there is a channel for Sailfish OS. Sometimes thee iis a lot of traffic, sometimes it's quite quiet.

Here is an Invitation link:

well it's a proprietary platform. What do you expect.
But regarding phone number, that's new to me. I would never give away my phone number for a platform like that. And I haven't done that for discord as well. If i go to the registration form, there is asked for a user name, a mail address and a birthday. So the only personal information which I have given away is one of my mail mail addresses and the birthday of Bill Gates (which can be found on wikipedia )

Totally offtopic, but I personally moved to Fxtec forums when my n900 died and I got my Pro1. I believe at least some of former active tmo members did the same.

...now my Pro1 is also (at least temporarily) dead, and I'm waiting for spares from Fxtec or the new Pro1X. We'll see which happens first, arrival of spare parts or arrival of Pro1X. But while waiting, I got a new n900 to have something to play with, and also came back here to see what's going on nowadays. I was pretty delighted when I found out that there were quite many recent topics on maemo/n900 sections

Nice to see you back. But you will be punished for being OT...unless you provide a picture

I sometimes come back to my N900 which I left intact when I need to chack an SMS or else. Strange feeling, even too much positive to stay comfortable. SFOS is really great but... N900 really is special (or me specially nostalgic)

BTW, even more offtopic: I one of you guys would be able to transfer SMSes from N900 -> XA2 SFos, I'd be thankful for some part of eternity and even happy to offer some dozens packs of beers!

Proprietary...well...
Thanks for detailing.
Maybe phone is because of my VPN. Gonna try without.
BTW, did you remark too that TMO is allergic to VPN?

EDIT: Even w/o VPN, Discord says the invitation (Fxtec) is invalid or that there is a problem which needs verification (SFos) by phone #.
I'll try next time in 6 month when my courage will rise again.
