Welcome back! Thank you for taking the time to both do the survey and also your follow-up email.
I'll admit I'm not currently using typed/racket, but it does get a significant number of issues and questions on the racket slack, so it was my impression that a significant subset of the community is using it. > Also, I feel sad my questions tend to be less noticed. My apologies. I think the community recognise this as an issue and I'm hoping the survey will help inform plans to improve the situation. There has been a significant move of general q&a activity away from the mailing lists to the Racket Slack. This is not surprising as communities do change over time and many Open source language communities have moved some or all of their activity to chat systems. I'm hoping we can use the results of the survey to improve this situation. (Suggestions welcome!)
