I most enjoyed the posts here from fellow users. Facebook doesn't really offer the same opportunity for we users to connect with each other.
I won't protest the decision or anything, I totally get it, but this is a sad day for me and dampens my enthusiasm for the product just a tiny bit. I know I'm in the minority here so it's ok.
And I fully realize the irony of suggesting that Facebook isn't good for people to connect with each other because that's their whole thing... It's just not really my thing.
I totally understand people's aversion to facebook. However I would like to clarify that it is not just us broadcasting information. I would say that 75% of the content on our facebook group is users sharing stuff with each other and sharing rides and information though. Several people post every day what rides they do and the challenges they are working on, and we even have people forming teams to do virtual rides together for events. It has proven to be a great place for a sense of community to grow that seemed to not happen much in our forums.
Discord offers that same opportunity without the need for interacting with facebook, we have some people posting dev and SDK stuff on their regularly as well as general unity futzing around.
