As far as I'm concerned, you guys don't need to do anything other than keep the site going. Far be it for me to demand things from you when I've volunteered to be a moderator here. If modmail gets reworked, awesome, if other things that people are asking for get rolled out, that's great too. But there are enough tools on the site right now for me to be able to do my job. Some of the toolbox and RES features are pretty useful, but if they went away I wouldn't be lost without them. I'm usually moderating via mobile anyway so w/e.
Which isn't to say I haven't noticed some half-assed, amateurish and baffling decisions from some of the admins over the last year or two - which cause me to worry more about the future of the site than what I am or am not getting as a moderator. I get the feeling no one quite knows what trajectory they're on anymore, and that there's no consensus on what direction the site is heading.
I am, and always have been, here for the readers. There's no better reason, in my opinion, for putting in time here voluntarily. I certainly can't say what the outcome of the current crisis will be, or advise you to do one thing or another to steer yourselves out of it. But I wanted to let you know that at least one mod is realistic about what you can or should deliver versus what is being demanded of you.

After a quick scan through your post history, I wish all mods were like you
