I am using TE app since 4 years or so never uninstalled but just continued from old phone to new phone. Will there be any problem?

I don't understand this minimum 25 post rule. Doesn't this encourage spamming? What should I even post about? Original content or copied technical articles from net?

TE is an old-school tech community-based forum that's been around for 20 years; the oldest probably, alongside Overclock.net (also 20 years). The minimum post rule is essentially to encourage meaningful memberships, and not solely for the marketplace, which isn't the focus of what this forum is built upon. Although you do have the option to take that route via a paid option (like a shortcut to win bundle in games).

As for spamming to reach that goal, one will get called out, not have their posts counted, or have them removed by a mod if a post doesn't add any value to a discussion, such as quoting someone with "I agree" or "+1".

If TE app is going to get created then we all members can crowd fundi small amounts for its development and maintenance.
This is just my opinion. Not that anybody will ask because nobody here has never asked.
This is just my idea about crowd funding the TE app. Thats all.

Reason: All old members are in their 40s while new members are in their 20s right. Either older or younger generation nowadays are more using their mobiles than PCs most of their daytime unless you are allowed to open other websites other than company sites while working in any company be it IT, Accounting, Manufacturing etc.

Solution: But if it's a mobile app which gives notifications and you can browse with ease then it's a very good solution for anybody's problems right.

No some of us still ask suggestions from others when buying anything. It's better to take other people's advices before taking a dive.

True that, even if someone is experienced and has knowledge there is always benefit from getting a second opinion.

I'm a software engineer, don't have much experience with mobile development, but I'd love to learn and contribute if this becomes a project.

An app can quickly and easily be made using WebView with something like Apache Cordova or Ionic.
