For pineapple?   Mostly in Canada, I think.

Canadian here, pineapple on pizza is an abomination.

Why did you remove the custom time range?

The justification is all laid out in the first post of this thread! Along with: "We won’t always get things right the first time — this is an iterative process of improvements"

I can confirm the date range search is being worked on.

It should become common practice to sack web designers after the site is up and running to prevent this insanity of constantly reinventing the wheel to justify their job position, so many sites keep degrading like this.

Once again, this wasn't a "make work" project.  The people who worked on this were literally hired for the express purpose of creating this update.  Robin wanted the site updated, Robin hired people to update the site, those people did the job according to Robin's requirements and with his approval.

This was a long-term project, not some scam that nefarious people pulled on Robin.

I like it, so long as the gaps between the pineapple chunks aren't too large.

We invented it.  We have to take responsibility for it.

Then there are much better ways to do this than a major downgrade citing "positive results from the people who actually opted in" as the only reason.

The majority of people that have since posted about this after it has gone live have pretty much all been about how bad it is. Any feedback has been ignored or even dismissed with hostility.

 

Just the amount of condescension from this:

Thanks for the feedback.

We disagree and aren't at this time looking for further input from UX professionals.

 

 

Runs against the idea of "this is an iterative process of improvement".

 

Even the stats provided elsewhere on the polling breakdown doesn't actually paint it as "universally liked".

You'll be iterating for a long time if this is the starting line.

To those that were experiencing 'lag' when scrolling (aka poor rendering performance) in some browsers/configurations, I'm hoping you would've seen some improvement on that since 1800 UTC today. If you didn't, not to worry- we aren't done on improvements we can make there.

Apparently, no single web or app UI developer ever has heard the phrase "If it isn't broken, don't fix it."
I really do not see any justification for these changes other than they just felt like it, almost every change I've looked at has been a downgrade from how it performed previously. What could possibly be the reason? Mobile browsing? Who is downloading mods on their phones?
