That's not the impression I get by reading forums like EAB, Amiga.org, AmiBay or a1k.org. They don't seem to care much for A-Eon.
Amiga.org and AWN are actually owned by A-Eonkit, their staff are largely A-Eonkit employees. EAB always seemed a 2nd tier site, but you may be partially correct. However even there an A-Eonkit employee is a moderator and key figure. Amibay is just worried about Amibay, that's rotten in its own way. a1k.org I can't speak for since I don't speak German.
The biggest Facebook Amiga fan page is relatively healthy since most users seem to be Johnny Come Lately members. That's about it.

Limbo Preview dropping.
Sam's Journey is one of the best platformers I have ever played. Heck, even
Megapatch 3 for Geos just got a massive update.
Where's the Amiga equivalent?
Retro Wars?
The Dream Of Rownan? Not so much IMO.
