| Aug 16, 2013 at 8:39 | comment | added | Eliah Kagan | In order to accommodate Ubuntu's wide user base, it is necessary to spread support efforts over several different support systems. Most significantly, many Ubuntu users don't speak English, and Ask Ubuntu is an English-only site. Some users prefer to minimize or eliminate the use of proprietary software (including webapps beyond a certain level of complexity), which should be respected but means they can't participate actively on AU. Some people have questions that need so much back-and-forth interaction (or want intensive help reporting bugs): they need a forum. And SE chat requires rep. | |

| Aug 15, 2013 at 18:46 | comment | added | Seth | @JorgeCastro If I tacked a bounty on every question that didn't have enough attention I saw I would soon have less than 75 reputation :( Trust me, I want to give bounty's away, but I'd also like to maintain a steady reputation... I like this answer, these things have been bothering me recently (especially after the forums people's attitudes over on discourse), but I haven't been able to express my feelings. This answer does it quite well. | |
| Aug 15, 2013 at 13:43 | comment | added | user25656 | @JorgeCastro I did post about the question I cited in the Forums but I get the impression of a house divided. While I'm quite comfortable with both UF and AU, others apparently aren't. Re. the bounty, I suppose I could now but it would be nice to see some sort of commitment from the OP (who is quite active in SO and so should know his way about). Meanwhile, I'll keep hoping for one "mega" unifying source for help on all things Ubuntu rather than the duplication of effort. | |
