Classic "two masters" problem.



This was from the CTO last week: "This work won't be landing anywhere until sometime next year and it'll be landing in our Cloud 2 offering first." So the OSS is definitely a second-class citizen. And now that they've dropped all DevRel activity, don't expect much attention for OSS Developers and users.


Quite the contrary, we're finishing up packaging of the OSS version now to make it as easy as possible for you to get it and we're assembled a new team focused on getting OSS 2.0 released.

We continue to support all users, including OSS users, in our public Slack and Discourse, as well as Github. We have not "dropped all DevRel" activity.


¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Influx laid off pretty much the entire DevRel team in the last 6 months, but ok.


This is true, and has certainly been painful for us and puts more work on those of us who are still working on community and devrel, but we're still doing it.


In fact we've got one of our Developer Advocates doing a live broadcast right now over at https://www.influxdata.com/time-series-meetup/virtual-2020
