Why are people not using the Community Section? (General)

A thought. Perhaps it's too vague.
Suggestion: have subsections, for example, pictures and stories of where Forest folk emigrated to (including darkest Yorkshire), researcher's hints and tips and methods of storing and sorting their data, a general "cafe" style of forum where people could discuss genealogical and family history things not directly associated with the FoD.........

For example, I'm struggling with the public v private issues of having trees on Ancestry and Genes. How do I synchronise my three databases as well as paper work is another topic? (don't reply yet, anyone!)Are there easier ways of recording citations from the 1911 census? Anyone using Linux software? Anyone interested in a mapping of where my grandparents and father went from the Forest, and why......etc etc.

Best wishes
