And just so that my comment above is clear, here is the jalyst suggestion I was referring to - see page 3 or so of the thread to see the message he was responding to:

Just be brutally honest, people need to hear the "God's honest truth", not what you think they'd like to hear.
Now that's truly "unlike", but in reality I don't expect it to happen very often...

That combined with more restrained comms (official/unofficial) is prolly the best approach from here onwards.
I think too much comms (or a bit too much of the wrong kind of comms) has been Jolla's undoing in many ways.
Less of the feel good marketing fluff* & platitude answers, more brutal honesty + heavy disclaimers that it's based on info. you have now.


*Marc & some of the more publicly visible/interactive leaders are especially cringe-worthy here
See, it doesn't even suggest more comms, it might actually be less comms - less work. Just more brutal honesty those times that communications is offered and is warranted.

It is a very good suggestion from jalyst.
