Who should work on drivers? Collect toolkits for developers? publish the templates of applications? release the libraries for Solutions in advance (example: library to generate barcodes, etc)?

Answer: The developer of the Operating system.

Zero reaction

Many developers of OS/2 applications were working several monthes on a project, but get 0 feedback, 0 reaction.

1) The age of OS/2 users is high, they are watching but don't spend efforts to "send likes" to every project. 2) In current situation, it's necessary create products for 100% of the users, don't make special products.

What to do? (we don't have advice)

OS/2 can't access memory

Usually OS/2 can use 4 Gb (3.5 Gb) of RAM. BUT, For new computers (let's say, manufactured after 2017 and newer), OS/2 can access 2 Gb, 1.5 Gb or less.
