Xara support going awol and no seriousness from xara to keep abreast with development

Just read Xara's magix support has crashed. Not surprising though and hope it won't disappear like Serif products!

It's true that we are seeing rapid changes and technological improvements and features like Grid, Boostrap and " With new techniques, technologies and movements constantly arriving on the scene, our sense of where things are going is more uncertain than ever. " In the coming years, web gurus believe that web designs are going to incorporate some form of artificial intelligence.

Xara Web Designer being a visual drag and drops however have had difficulties with the mobile variants especially if it has been done without one of its templates with push and it's a hell working with that. It should have at least been able to make the screen automatically responsive like Website Realizer, Bootstrap Studio.

On the Updating aspects, it has failed lamentably. Xara has only been able to fill its coffers with its update service and i's like removing from the woods and get into the forest !

No serious updates if only twice a year just like before. Will Xara be able to cope with the paradigm shift happening in web design or going extinct like the Dodo which I don't wish . It's up to Xara to re-invent itself and present a software for the future especially, it's an expensive software. Is pageless design the future for all native devices? If yes, where would then Xara be situated?

This is not a Thread for the TalkGraphics questions, suggestions and feedback Forum.
It is firmly a Dear Xara set of observations.

Magix now handles Xara Desktop Product support. Its servers/proxies/connectivity died and we also lost on-line content access for about 3 hours.
Xara only promise 98% availability so we could expect 14.5 hours downtime in any month. Not a great service if fault reporting is impaired at the same time.

Xara Variants strictly follow the pixel positioning that all Xara designs have always followed.
Adaptive design is not feasible but as Smartphone and tablet variant are usually less gimmicky, it is possible to build these with other tools, sharing the high quality vectors Xara has produced.
Tedious but Xara Desktop applications are just tools.

You are joining a long queue of Customers lamenting the Update Service's limitations.
It could be made fantastic if Xara allowed all bug fixes and updates to be kept - very clear and very simple.

Pageless design requires a formal modelling language with appropriate styling for each device's nature.
We already have AI ramming tailored adverts onto our screens so tailored content might be possible but real-time saccadic eye-interaction is going to be a way off.
