now told that 75% of the community doesn't like the change.
I'm sorry to enter this discussion, but that's simply not what
the poll
is saying. It should be very obvious that the poll is basically
meaningless.
Independent on the topic at hand - wondering what your
reasoning is. I just took a look and there are 205 votes. Not a
large number, but quite a lot more than any voting we saw in
the past (when consensus was proclaimed after like 15 votes
:o)). Intuitively I agree with you, but I wonder at what point
numbers become large enough to capture meaning. Thx! -- Andrei
One possibility is that you have to care enough to vote. It's
hard to imagine that there is symmetry between those that dislike
the new format and those that don't. And some members of the
community don't even use Dub.
On other matters, 15 votes is fine, if they're the ones that care
and have the background to form an opinion.
