If the Wishlist Survey 2022 goes on, my proposal will be simple: make the first 50 wishes. We have money. We need it. And we are not doing essential things. Also, solving platform issues shouldn't be something to vote on. I don't understand why we have to vote to have solutions to even basic infrastructure issues.

Best,
Galder

I agree with the issues here, but I don't think that the solution should
be to get rid of the wishlist. Instead, it really should be expanded so
it can handle many more of the wishes, since there are many good ones
that keep getting proposed but just don't get enough votes to be in the
top ten.

Thanks,
Mike
