Good read!

A lot of the information you share, I didn't know. Some of those projects were already running when I arrived at Hive, but I had heard about them. I think it's important for the community to know this so that everyone can judge and make informed decisions. I still haven't voted on the proposal; I mainly believe it's misdirected. I don't think new features are the key to attracting more people; rather, we should focus on retaining existing users. That's a challenge in itself!
