I feel a need to also express my feelings about recent changes...
I joined this site as a student needing help with digital electronics. I lurked here for a few weeks and it was a no brainer, clear lay out, knowledgable members, no product promotions. And I can live with no automotive threads. The moderators were fair to their best abilities as compared to my previous experience.
Lets look at today - I would never even consider the forum simply based on how it looks, there are multiple other sites dedicated to arduino that have been in existence for years and are not violent orange. The site is difficult to navigate (especially on a mobile devise) and the community is struggling.
I am very disappointed in changes, I am here to learn from people who brought much knowledge and feel that owners/administrators are pulling away from the discussion with people who made this forum what it is. It is nothing without its members and their contribution.
