RE: Influenced by the ecosystem
funny it's like you guys sit around some round table and decide the topic of the week.
It happens because of the way a community works as information feeds off information. Those who just throw in random topics expecting engagement aren't likely very connected to what is actually happening in the various communities.
However, retention has been a discussion topic (at least for several) for many months and it is getting approached from several ways. For me personally I don't care much about retention currently, I care about having people willing to engage. The problem with retention isn't the platform, it is the people who sign up thinking it is a get rich quick scheme.
Solving the problems doesn't happen on platform yet, that is where most people will spend their time.
