I was super excited about it but, now that I missed out on the first batch (yes I would have paid the $500), I'm not sure I'm going to buy it unless I can see there's a good community around it. The official forum is kind of dull. I don't have Facebook which, based on what 8-bit Guy has said, is the most active place for discussion, so I don't know how the vibe is over there.

I'm going to get one at the ~$300 level. Their discord channel is pretty active. David and some of the collaborators show up there pretty often. https://discord.gg/nS2PqEC

I totally forgot about the discord! I might have unjoined around the time I figured it was just never going to happen a few years ago. I'll check that out again.

discord isn't a community
