From the blog post:

To be clear, this does not mean channels like Meta will go away, but they need to grow to ensure that users are heard and responded to in a timely fashion.

Too bad, that the most activities of SE Inc. during the last months mainly shrank the Meta communities. All of them. Because so many formerly motivated users had enough, turned around and walked away.

Also note: this isn't a code base for some software product. Those, sometimes, need to be thrown out, and rewritten from scratch.

The CEO wants to grow feedback channels. Well, his company had one of the best user feedback systems in the world. The company allowed that to deteriorate, leading to hundreds, if not thousands of frustrated users.

And now, instead of fixing the channel you broke, you think that creating new ones will work? Doesn't sound too convincing to me. Especially given the fact that even those that are still around... you lost our trust. You think a different channel will change anything about that?

Nonetheless: thanks for making it clear that the metas will stay. I will for sure stay to see how exactly all you plans will be communicated and implemented.
