FA Sorta back? by Cassiel

But if the cross post thing works, I'm gonna keep using this site too. Like I said before I don't think this was true exodus. It was however, a large amount of the community realizing having a recognizable account off site has it's benefits.

Less righteous "I'M LEAVING FOR GOOD!" and more realizing "HEY you know what? Having a decent fall back for stuff is kinda cool."

Optimistically FA might realize it needs to step up it's A-game. It's that or FA is doomed to something that on the internet is worse then nerd rage; irrelevancy.

FA Sorta back?

    I dunno if FA is really interested in "competing" with anyone, despite the fact that they're selling adspace. It really is just a shambles of Alkora's old code guarded by Yak the savage junkyard dog, and as for any improvements, I doubt Ferrox is, or ever was, a thing.

      That'll probably be the calalyst of the slow descent. Constant outages and complacency. I like to think people will only take so much before looking elsewhere.

        But I mean who knows, I've been wrong before, I'll be wrong in the future. I wouldn't mind eating my words on this one.

          I would at least like FA to try and be less shitty. Less changes no one asked or crap like noticiations and submissions sent in batches and 60 second upload cooldowns.

    Yeah, Ferrox is pretty much vaporware. So many teasers of improvements in FA, and I've only seen a (relatively subtle) change of interfaces all of once. FA's not going anywhere anytime soon.
