Hello!

As you would have noticed, there are some changes that have occurred this week in the community: new moderator, new look, but especially the temporary deactivation of the Zippy Bot, which often shared posts that were not relevant and did not encourage so much exchange between users.

So I wanted to know your opinion, collect your ideas in order to improve the community. Thank you to everyone who joins!

    I like the Mac Rumors articles that the Zippy Bot posted.

    What do you want this community to be? A place to discuss news articles about Apple, or a place for users to bring their own discussion topics?

    Personally, I’d like it to be both. I think refining Zippy Bot would allow this community to still have plenty of rumor and news articles. I do wish there was a better balance of user posts, though, for better discussions.

      I would also like both but I mean, there are so many articles of the Zippy Bot that appear every hour that we can only see the up votes. And not only I would like users to bring the articles themselves (this would solve the problem of impertinence of the articles) but in addition it would increase quality rather than quantity (sawing once again that several articles are repeated). So like you I prefer both but I would like members not to take this community for an RSS client. I hope I expressed myself well 😅

      If it can reduce the number of posts made by the robot by limiting it to a single source, that would be good. I’m looking at how to filter irrelevant posts from Mac Rumors. Thank you for your suggestion.
