Okay why open this thread?
If you feel it is very negative, state the reasons why.
The N9 is somewhat limited and Harmattan runs okay on it, but SailfishOS has problems.
Well yes the world is not perfect.
Neil hasn't left.
If you're talking about why most people left its not because of Nokia or Android.
Its because more and more of us get limited in our time to enjoy our hobbies.
Blame the economy or blame society. Or just blame maturity.
The point is this community is great but we just don't have the hardware, software and financial support as other "phone dev" communities.
We could never be as large as iPhone-Jailbreaking community or XDA-Devs.
Hell, even Nokia is dead now that all future devices will be named "Microsoft Lumia xxx".

So if you are leaving, do so at your own choice. Come back anytime. Leave again.
We don't judge. And when we do, its for satire.

But creating a thread like this is meaningless, and is overall worse for everyone here. Its simply discouraging.

I agree with you 99.99% Kangal...
the other .01% I disagree in is....
that...'tween mscion, Dave and myself...I think we brightened up an otherwise morose thread...says me

OOps spoke too soon....
Sorry ....but I couldn't help it...
Being a "negative nelly" here...but...
The post title does seem a bit..."Oh woe is me..in my self-imposed exile..."
but honestly you aren't alone man...
at this moment you may wish to be...
but once you finish self-flagellating (great term eh? ) ...
come on back...we all would miss you...or at least some....ok ...ok...perhaps a few will miss you....but you will be missed.

He didn't open it, he posted completely off-topic somewhere, so it was moved here.
I did tell him where the new thread was, in case he wanted to continue a discussion.
But this was his last post (also off-topic, so I deleted it):

go **** yourself - my last.post
Something tells me he won't be back...

You're welcome to rename this thread title if you want, that's just the 1st thing that came to mind.

Argh!
Well as far as trying to promote positive vibes...his "last post" kinda goes against his professed and desired ethic if he was hoping for commiseration, sympathy...empathy even ...and for a more gentle dialogue garnering gentle behaviour. Hardly "gentlemanly" or to be more modernly engaging... "gentlepersonly" ....since one of the dictionary definitions prerequisites for a "gentle-person" is to essentially make those around said person as comfortable as humanly possible...his last post scrambles that ...and I would hardly call him a gentleman as a consequence.

If they're Nokia chocolates, they might be expired.
If they're Microsoft chocolates, they'd taste disgusting.
If they're MeeGo chocolates, they simply don't exist =D

If they're Apple chocolates, they'll come in a shiny wrapping, but hollow, withoutt any substance, made to an outdated recipe and outrageously overpriced
