All valid points @enjar.
It could all be purely coincidental but it seems like there could be a plan being implemented.
Yes I didnt focus upon it but you are right...there have been some small changes to the UI, some of which we know tie into the new updates (such as the change in self voting/curation time).
I wonder if they will just hold it all back and do one big overall over the course of a few days or if it will be piece mail.
Short of SMT and the next hardfork I think smaller stuff will keep coming out in little bits. I think you would also want your leadership all back at hq for any big roll outs. Would be nice to see some further commutation on little changes unless I’m just missing some kind of announcement posts. Everyone just seems to run into something new and interact with it that way. It still is a “beta” after all so I could see them wanting to test things in smaller chunks. Some interesting times to come at the very least.
