1. You can't compare the developer community of the 2nd largest crypto that has been out for a full year longer to Stratis. It's like saying LISK is written in JavaScript, and JavaScript is more common than Solidity, so how come LISK doesn't have more devs than Ethereum? The development community needs to be built up as any other project would need to do when their code is still in progress. Further progression of releases and dedicated guides to developing Stratis (which are coming soon) will attract a wider audience to want to develop on the platform - it just takes time.
2. This is more of an opinion from your end rather than a fact. Initially when Stratis started, the team was literally 1/6th of what it was today and Chris WAS one of the main devs for Stratis. He comes from a Software Consulting position prior to Stratis with a background in software development. But hey, don't take my word for it -
https://theviralexchange.com/ look at what this 'fluff talk CEO' developed all by himself.
3. There's more than 3 devs listed on the team page of the website with many more that aren't mentioned. The team should really update the team list because Krushang mentioned they have 12 full-time active devs on the project.
4. You picked the least downloaded item available to the devs on purpose. Have you looked at the Breeze Wallet Master branch and how many times that has been pulled? There is a dedicated community of volunteer testers in the slack who have been actively testing. It's hard to find volunteer testers in
any software project mind you, but just because it's not on more public social media sites like Reddit doesn't mean it's not going on. Slack is the easiest way for testers to reach the devs so they congregate there to test. This doesn't include the list of active testers for the Stratis Identity mobile app which is just rolling out to iOS this week after being in beta on Android for over a month.
5. Again, virtually nonexistent in terms of what? There are more than a handful of dedicated development channels where the Devs are active and communicating with the community to ask questions.
6. This can be said about virtually every coin out there. The reality is crypto is 90% of common traders/investors looking to make a quick buck, a fraction of the remaining 10% are devs. You can take a look at any crypto community and see that the majority isn't thriving with eager devs ready to develop on code that is mostly unfinished or in testing phases for free, so that can't be an argument only pertaining to Stratis.
7. The delays definitely hurt, tumblebit proved to be more time-consuming than originally planned and the planning could've been better - I don't think anyone can argue with that. But Breeze is not the only component to Stratis nor is it the only thing they have been working on. You're ignoring the other components to the platform that have made progress by being in Beta (Stratis Identity), Stratis Full Node (close to completion), their ICO Platform which they have already started doing internal demos on:

haven't been hyping enough.
With regards to that article - old news. Half of his points are debunked and proven to have aged terribly considering that this fud 'article' was written back in June.
I'd advise you to ask more questions, there is an active community that would be more than happy to fill in any gaps you have regarding to Stratis.
1. I was comparing the Stratis developer community to early Ethereum. Stratis has nothing. No developer community at all.
2. Chris (CEO) comes from a software consulting position? Wow, so impressive! He doesn't even have a LinkedIn page showing his background. We don't know his background. That site he built is a nickel and dime site that could be built by Wordpress. You mentioned Lisk and if you look there are a lot of Lisk developers who have pretty impressive LinkedIn profiles. Chris talks fluff and sounds like he should be running a corner shop in the UK.
3. I could care less about # of develoepers listed. Check Github, Dan Gershony looks like he's done the majority of the work. After Stratis hit $10+, his profile changed to smoking a cigar so he's probably already made his millions and could give a rats ass about Stratis. That's probably why nothing gets done now.
4. You are excited about the Breeze wallet? It was supposed to be released in May. Then June. Then August. Now last day of October and it's still Beta. People are really falling for the scam that you get enough Stratis and you'll be tumbling shit and earning Bitcoin. Are people this stupid?
5. Stratis strategy has always been, hey we have nothing, no community, etc but look go to Slack, it's all there.
This scam coin got pumped and dumped again. People lost money again. Hopefully some of the bagholders got out in the pump. Do your research.
