Absolutely.
This blog must have taken 20 minutes to write.
90% of readers don't understand/care for the first 3 headings, the focus and top heading should have been Communication.
Two articles in 3 weeks from @steemitblog. I'm sorry, but this isn't good enough.
We don't expect to be told inner details of code revamps, we just want a message saying 'sorry, we know there is a problem, we are working on it'.
This message can come out daily, and/or be pinned as a top post in my home screen.
Zappl it while you are taking a 'personal break' if you wish - just keep the community in the loop!
