Thanks, good to have such memory perspective. I suggest deprecation blogs then. For reducing futile requests.
The blog explains a lot of things, and the feature complexity with increasing size population. Those are qualitative arguments, and might actually apply in this particular thread where lichess becomes the host server.
I think I was talking more about how the population of lichess users might be put in the loop sometimes, about such decisions, even if one could listen to the video. There are blogs for new salivation inducing features, why not make the serene assessment of choices known. People could take measures. And also, understanding the reasoning (at least for me) goes a long way toward thinking that it was not done lightly with total disregard for legacy users. I doubt it is often, with noticeable exception of the forum visibility one, was kind of worse than that, it was using false arguments about the feature implementation quality, or dismissing its was ever used by anybody, when asked in feedback threads.
I think a deprecation blog, would help. It would also centralize where to share things in both direction.. Not stretch the agony, in diverting argumentations. Specially now that ....
Anyway, at least there would be a healthy basis of facts for digestive discussions.
