Guys, the best place to keep up-to-date and get help with your wallet issues is Discord: https://discord.gg/gyfGdBP

Almost nobody posts here anymore. Linda is very active on Discord, with hundreds of posts every hour and lots of developer participation.

That's a problem this entire industry has - - - poor marketing. You tell people that no action is here and they need to join the discord. Yes, I am well versed with discord but there is a demographic of people that use bitcointalk for their information. Think about that. There is no reason somebody from discord couyldn't step up and keep this thread up to date.

just my 2 satoshi's

exactly!
there are many people who have registered here at bitcointalk to get informed about their coins and either cannot or don't want for several reasons to register at another place for these informations.




Times change.

It's not just Linda that has moved to Discord, many have. Bitcointalk is old and clunky. It's just not practical to discuss all the separate elements of Linda (wallets, staking, masternodes, trading, etc, etc) here in a single thread, while providing support and keeping people up-to-date on developments. Discord provides a much more modern, organised interface that makes it easy for the developers to be more involved with the community.

Personally I think Discord was a good choice. It keeps all of the discussions about each crypto development conveniently organised in one place, while making it easy to add more 'servers' to switch between the discussions of all the different crypto development that you might be following with just a single sign-up. And you can access it in a browser on a desktop computer just as easily as you can from a mobile device.

When you buy a product that requires support, you wouldn't expect the manufacturer to participate in every related forum on the internet -- in most cases they would have their own forums, which you would be required to subscribe to if you wished to be kept up-to-date on developments. At least with Discord you only have to register once, yet each development team has its own 'forum'.

Linda's Discord channel has around 7000 members presently and typically over 600 online at any one time. Compare that to this place. It would be difficult for the developers to justify spending time maintaining and supporting this thread when it reaches so few people.

Wrong in so many ways. Discords demographic is a young crowd with no money while seasoned people that have established themselves with wealth and are looking to inject liquidity into the crypto space prefere a forum like this. Trust me, I know about this.
