I do not think the platform is the issue I think there is a genuine decline of interest in Ubuntu. I think how community is engaged with and recognized needs to be evaluated. If you want to increase participation then invest in recognition. Also look at other metrics... Look at approved locos, members, mailing list volumes, UDS participation. All of these metrics are down.
