re item2: I did not started this thread to get a sticky of “Unofficial bug tracking” thread, I started it for the reasons explained in item0, but the stick is appreciated thanks.

The thread lost the intended focus, and moved to something else, If there were moderators of this forum, I guess all that non-relevant conversation should have be moved to another thread. ~

That would be great!
I thought I was just really stupid because I couldn’t find the subscribe button.

If an independent support forum is set up, maybe someone could explain to me how to enable multilingual spell checking. (Swedish/English)
I followed the instructions I found and the Swedish spell check can’t find a suggestion for any words.

[quote=“mark4”]the developer is a quiet, private person, with awesome developer skills and no (time for?) social skills… so your going to go crying to mommy and getting a different editor?

That’s one way of looking at it, especially coming from the F/OSS world where anyone is free to do whatever they want (essentially, let’s not start arguing about that) with the code, and support other users to the best of their abilities if they wish. The difference here is that (hopefully) many of us paid good money for this product, and expect something more in return besides a lack of popups when trying to save, and the privilege of alpha/beta-testing the new version. I am perfectly happy to support Jon’s coding habit, as I feel he should be rewarded for creating such a fantastic editor. However, it’d be nice to have some semblance of a professional support structure in place, even if it’s just one person monitoring the forums here, and maybe contributing to the various StackExchange sites, responding on userecho, updating the docs, etc.

I’m not ready to leave ST, as I’ve invested so much in it, and there aren’t any really viable alternatives yet (although apparently that’s starting to change, judging by the side-thread here). I can completely understand Jon’s wanting to focus on coding instead of other, perhaps less-interesting things, but in order to run a successful business it needs to be done.

Jon replied to an email of mine the other day, in regards to this topic.

He’s busy, he’s doing amazing things. Give him time :smile:

I created a Moot.it forum if anyone fancies trying it.

Good. Because this is exactly what we need: one more discussion board.
User echo, this forum and github issue tracker are all too mainstream? :mrgreen:

Are there still someone to think that userecho site is useful ?

2599 ideas and 1096 bugs …
Lot of spam.
And no activity since 2 years from Jon.

At least it’s 3695 less topics in this forum :smile:

So these months of silence and increased number of bugs lately has unfortunately left me with no choice but stop recommending ST to friends and co-workers :frowning:

Maybe. Maybe not. The total-silence-for-months approach is idiotic.

He emailed me after I asked him if he’s okay. Why do you need proof?

Arjan, you shall see. I’m sure Jon wants to make sure that whatever changes — must be big ones — he’s made, they’re working properly.
