Looking at the Mod Duo X and its possibilities

Well, this thread gained near zero traction, which is sad but not surprising.

In light of Gianfranco’s Reboot Update as of late, there’s nothing much coming to the Duo X except for maintenance and some eventual catch up (like 1.12 recently). Plus accommodations for stuff like AIDA.

However another portion of that update tells what I needed (but didn’t want) to know: the 2016 Duo is now end-of-service or EOL (end-of-life) if you will.

So the 2018 Duo X may get EOLd sometime in the next 2 years. Specially with the company being reduced to 2 employees. More so with it being left behind for years now, again with the exception of 1.12 update.

What’s more, the motto “when the company gets stable” is very questionable. Mod simply doesn’t turn a profit and needs to seek investors/backers every turn of the way. Not now with the reboot, but if you read carefully, there were other instances, and products moved forward with crowdfunding. I’m in the financial market auditing business btw. This information is public, so there’s no insider info here, it’s in plain sight.

What is worse is when you pay a lot of money for a private company and then someone tells you that you should go to GitHub and fix some issue for them and for free. No, users are not obligated to do that, MOD should fix it. Don’t use open source rhetoric when you charge corporate amounts for your work.

I have been reading this forum for years, but my taking part in it is recent. And it ends here.

My Mod Duo X is now up for sale, if anyone’s interested. Pains me to do that, but I have to move on.

Peace everyone.
