Robert Holsey, chief product owner, shared his [reflections on 2022 and a look ahead to 2023 with the Claris Community](https://content.claris.com/claris-community-holsey-fmsoup).

Personally, I've enjoyed participating in this community and watching it grow over the past few years.

All of us at Claris wish you and yours a safe and joyous festive season. We look forward to working with you in 2023.

I am not able to open the link. I get the error „ERR\_CONNECTION\_REFUSED“. Has anyone the same error?  
(macOS Ventura 13.1, Brave Browser)

EDIT: In Safari it works. Strange.

Interesting! Now, some hours later the link works in Brave too.  
Yesterday and earlier today it didn't work.

But OK. Now I have read the article. For me it cleared not everything but a lot of my concerns about the future direction of Claris/FileMaker.

The more accurate the picture we get, the less apprehension remains. And anticipation of what is to come has a chance.
