Welcome! I saw your post about not wanting to give up… It’s not you who has given up, it’s Niche - what’s telling is that after all the feedback online, not a single Niche staff member thought it was worth their time to even respond once.
I suggest setting up a new category for vintage Macs over here, and let’s just move on - an online community has nothing to do with the owners - it’s all to do with the members - so as members, let’s just start a new community over here.
