I don’t get why there are barely any new posts being made on the forum! I wish we would keep the conversation going because there is so much I want to discuss around the R1 and about GenAI general.

I use the most negative assessment is:
On our forum, the number of people who continuously log in and pay attention may only hover around one thousand. The number of people who can truly take the initiative to send messages and actively participate in exchanges and interactions fluctuates around two hundred. As for those who frequently send messages for interaction on a daily basis, even fifty people are hard to reach.
Furthermore, everyone has their own work to be busy with and many affairs in life that need to be dealt with. In addition, since everyone comes from different countries, the influence of time differences objectively exists. After all, not everyone is willing to spend 199 dollars to buy the device only to find that many functions are not yet online. They also need to spend time and energy to freely put forward various suggestions and future plans for this company and help test new functions. This is undoubtedly a very realistic problem.
Positive evaluation:
However, it is precisely these challenges that give us more room for thinking and exploration. We can work together to find better ways to stimulate everyone’s enthusiasm for participation and make the forum a vibrant and valuable communication platform, bringing more gains and growth to every participant.

As I am also in the Glowforge group, I have seen there too where Disccord sucks all the air out of Discourse.

Cool, is that a Laser engraver? And what do you mean with discord sucking out all of the disclosure?

I did noticed that people start to not engage in the conversation that much. but i think this comes with the only problem that NO MUCH CHANGE happened for the r1.
After the slowly introduction of BETA Rabbit, the problem with the annoying repetitive sentence and the fact that gets stuck in the loop, things that where mentioned already.
Guess that when TEACH MODE will be available we will have many cool use cases and inspiration in how to get the most out of the R1

Ofcourse, maybe when we get ways to control / built our own experiences we have with our R1’s there is way more to share as a community.
But still I hope people just keep checking the forum and chime in on things.

Maybe trying to engage people in participating to a creative contest like this one could activate the community a little 🎵 SUNO Creation Contest: Celebrate Your City!
I was so surprised that actually got 0 reaction this post

Sorry, I love creating with Suno and especially Udio but would only engage with this if it was an actual Rabbit thing (with something to win like, create the next R1 notification sound), the same goes for creations with magic camera (I don’t really like the fact that the Rabbit Reddit is filled with magic cam images either).
I don’t really like what people make with AI tools (And I think they might not like what I make)
Edit: I just read your post and like the idea of this being more like a community contest that is supported by Rabbit.

Yes, like they did with the contest in the USA for the Magic Cam

In part, a bit of irony, as Discourse is the name of this server, and Discord is the name of the other, and indeed just talking (discourse) is often drowned out by arguing (discord) which seems to be the balance when one group joins both systems.
I indeed, have been a designer for many years, starting out doing 3D printing back when computers were buildings, and lacking a robot to do my 3D printing I was doing so by hand, mostly making gold jewelry. Now after many years in many sorts of design; mechanical, artistic, architectural, and eventually virtual, I wanted to get back to real stuff, so I bought into a robot laser to help out.
Glowforge was a step away from the DIY mode that took more technical knowledge than artistic that even now seven years later draws the same attitudes as the R1 as both have evolved (mainly by software) and both receiving flack for not being what they promise to eventually be.

How can we tell? I use AI as a tool and not a master (Magic Canvas instead of Magic Camera) both using in a design and after made, in a display of how it can be used:

Forum tends to favor quality over quantity. Live chat instances like Discord give you a better “real-time” vibe sense, but it is impossible to log a lot of stuff or close the loop on anything.
Everything here is getting logged and fed back to product, whereas that’s not the case on Discord.
Both can co-exist well, and serve different segments of the audience, with some overlap. It’s a Venn diagram ultimately.
Also we have a strong long tail here, because everything is also indexed to Google etc. So people can actually find answers when they have a problem.
