Cedric V Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 Greeting everyone, I'm thrilled to announce that I have secured an opportunity to interview none other than Charles from Invision Community. This is a rare and exciting occasion, and I believe that involving you as our community members can make this experience even more enriching! In recent happenings, I can imagine some of you might have some questions you'd like to see included in this interview. As I always say, a community is the backbone of any platform. So, I thought: Why not let YOU have a say in the interview? I'm offering all of you a chance to send in your questions, and I'll do our best to include as many as I can in our conversation with Charles. How to Submit Your Questions: Reply to this topic with your question for Charles. You may PM me your question if you wish to send it anonymously. Please keep your questions respectful, relevant, and constructive. If you see a question from another member that resonates with you, give it a "like". This will help us gauge the most popular and sought-after questions. You can submit multiple questions, but please post each question separately to make it easier to tally and sort. Deadline: The last date for submitting your questions is September 1st. I'll compile them shortly afterward and then proceed with our interview. A Few Guidelines: Avoid asking questions that have been answered multiple times in previous communications or on the official FAQ. While I appreciate all the input, I may not be able to include every question in the interview due to time constraints. This is a golden chance to get insights, clarifications, or just to know more about the visions and aspirations of Invision Community from one of its key figures. So, let your curiosity run wild and be a part of this unique opportunity! Looking forward to seeing what you all come up with. 😄 I'm very grateful for this opportunity and hope to receive many questions and interest for this interview. Best regards, Cedric (Admin Junkies) David N., Marc Stridgen, DawPi and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss_B Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 (edited) My question is "Why did you remove the Marketplace" 😄 (joke) Sorry if the joke sounded lame, but I couldn't resist it. My questions are as follow: What does a typical work day looks like for Charles and what do you do for fun/relaxation when you are outside the office? What do you find most challenging about your position/role? I am looking forward to the interview. I am sure it will make for an interesting reading.

Yes, the design will not only look different but the way you do themes will be very different. We're pretty close to starting our public v5 blogs/teasers.

Marius Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 @Charles, There will be a dedicated mobile application on the new version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Calvert Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 I’m not Charles but as a teaser based on prior comments by IPS staff… IPS has actually removed the native app from prior versions with the note it is highly unlikely to be added back again. Instead they are focusing on PWA and better responsive mobile design. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 In my opinion it's a big mistake that a native application is not made, as there is, for example, Reddit. PWA is a mess, it doesn't even have all the functionality of the browser. PWA functionality is not at all the same as a native application. We should not lie to ourselves. In the future, web sites without an native application are doomed to disappear, since all traffic has moved to mobile. SeNioR- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that spirit: Reddit is a company with 2000 employees, IPS has less than 20. That makes a difference in what they can create. We should not lie to ourselves.
