ElixirForum Problem
1. Most posts are locked behind authentication 2. The forum search does not show you the "locked" threads
Here, as an example: https://elixirforum.com/t/whats-the-status-of-next-ls-and-lexical-merging-forces/71880/29
So you will never see even veterans of the ecosystem pushing back against the situations. And people reacting defensively, avoiding taking responsibilities.
If I am wrong, Admins are more than welcome to disclose stats information, and provide details about it. And let you decide for yourself.
The whole situation is controlled behind the most amazing experience, using the same "success" examples from the last 15 years, and some of them are due to Erlang, not Elixir as a language per se (so use Gleam for that matters).
The ecosystem is incrementally becoming worst over time, the leadership fails to sustain the needs of the ecosystem hidden behind the public face of "I don't want to tell the community what to do" while also having strong opinions and providing very little support or opportunities for others to take the lead.
Tell the Admins to stop hiding posts, let's start there.
