IMPORTANT: Final ROS & Gazebo Answers Migration Schedule

@peci1

I was curious how much did our community extend the RSE community. I don’t have exact numbers, but e.g. the “Supporter” badge awarded for the first upvote is given to ~3000 users.

I don’t have one to one visibility in metrics. Looking at the number of users who have earned Karma on answers.ros.org there’s about 50% more on ROS Answers than Robotics.SE.

It’s still early but we have seen significantly increased engagement on Robotics Stack Exchange since the migration with double to triple some of the very basic site statistics.

I think the heads up on the migration was a bit short. I get that it can be troublesome to have a longer transition period, but not everybody is monitoring the forums actively here. Anyways I missed the window to register my username between ros answers and robotics SE. I already had an account on both sites with the exact username. But the questions from ros answers were not linked to my robotics SE account. Is there a way to still do that? My username is Hakaishin on both platforms.

I’m sorry that you didn’t get a chance to do the association. We’ve been messaging with the specific link to sign up since May and June about getting people to register.

The migration has been completed. There’s a question on Robotics Meta Stack Exchange which has the best known solution to try to associate your data now.

ROS users migrated to Robotics Stack Exchange – how to link accounts?
