This compares to the following other communities, each of which have a broader "general discussions about openSUSE" topic by design, other than the intended "support" focus of this list
- 4814 subscribers to the openSUSE reddit community - 14.8 _thousand_ members of the openSUSE group on facebook - 29.5 _thousand_ followers of the openSUSE group on Google+ - 38 _thousand_ members of the openSUSE forums - 56.2 _thousand_ subscribers of the openSUSE feed on twitter
As I've mentioned before, I have no intention of 'doing' social media, which rules out reddit, facebook, google & twitter for me, but I have been a member of the forums for a number of years. I hardly ever go there because there's just too much surface area. It's a place I dip into if I'm looking for something specific, or in the past if I felt like answering some questions.
Now my general approach to managing forums is to add their RSS feeds to my RSS aggregator, so two days ago I went to the forum and asked my aggregator to search for an RSS feed and it found https://forums.opensuse.org/external.php?type=RSS2 so I added that. But I went back to my aggregator today and the RSS feed hasn't been updated. So how do I follow the forums?
AFAIR, the fora are also bi-directional gated to a news-server - maybe news://forums.opensuse.org, I'm really not sure. Otherwise open a report (admin@o.o) on the failing RSS function.
That's right. I activated kaggregator yesterday and ever since the forums feeds drop in like they should. Another way of accessing the forums is through NNTP. -- Gertjan Lettink, a.k.a.
