So were these low priority goals and projects before the public shit storm? And if so what were you guys originally working on?

Honest question, I'm genuinely confused. If the devs weren't working on, ya know, basic dev stuff, what have they been doing the past couple of years?

Your confusion is warranted. The truth is that there are a lot of things that we've needed to improve and a limited pool of dev resources. We've made significant infrastructure changes, built some apps, worked on our mobile interface, and made a lot of smaller improvements to the site.

There were existing plans to make some of the community-related improvements before this week, but we only recently have been able to have a developer available that focuses specifically on that area.
