Topics — What do we think about this? | KINDRED Forum

Industry problems, standards, technology, product design, relationships, compatibility and community culture. Threads that do not belong to one narrow subject but are worth working through properly.

Core question: What do we think about this?

In Topics

Why does every adult toy still need its own charger? — What consumers end up with isn't really a charging ecosystem. It's a collection of separate charging solutions.
Finding Someone Isn’t the Hard Part. Finding Someone Compatible Is. — Finding people with shared interests is only the beginning. How do people actually find trust, compatibility and connection inside a niche community?
Is there a standard for quick-release hardware? — If every maker used the same connector size, gear would be interchangeable. Does any standard exist, or should the community create one?
What should the next charging ecosystem look like? — One universal cable, wireless charging, magnetic contacts, or a tray that charges everything at once. What would actually make charging easier?
Why does most mainstream gear ignore fit? — Almost everything is sold in one size or three, and almost nobody publishes measurements. Is there a reason manufacturers avoid this?
