Thank you for the note about the Community Wishlist Survey. As a member of Community Tech responsible for the community relations, I appreciate your help in spreading the word.
I'd like to point out that the sentences Community Tech committed to investigating and addressing the top 10 wishes and Out of the top 10 winning proposals, Community Tech has completed two of them [...], and is currently working on one, leaving 7 that are incomplete are only in line with our past practices. We write about the current ones in the FAQ and, in detail, on Community Wishlist Survey/Prioritization as well as Diff.
Last year and this year, we didn't commit to work on 10 or any other given number of proposals. Instead, we are working on as many as it gets in light of the results of the prioritization process and external factors we can't change. (Last year, the latter was namely: COVID and prolonged unavailability of some engineers.)
I offer help with any texts about the Survey and Desktop Improvements. I think my colleagues will also collaborate if you're interested in other projects of the Product department at the Wikimedia Foundation.
Hello there, I apologize for the inaccuracy in the report. I have clarified that Comm Tech didn't commit to completing all of the top 10 wishes, but I have left the part regarding 7 wishes that are incomplete in, as I feel it is relevant to the community's perspectives. 🐶 EpicPupper(he/him | talk)17:36, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps I'm a bit odd, but I like Dark Mode on desktop; for one thing it makes my ENWP watchlist look very different from my various other watchlists. I don't like it so much on Mobile Site. Jim.henderson (talk) 15:55, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sure I shouldn't really be advocating using Dark Mode on a mobile at 2:30am whilst tucked up under the bedsheets next to one's adorable sleeping wife, but I do tend to find the momentary brilliant white flashes experienced when switching between pages and sections does rather detract from the otherwise gently-soporific experience of late-night, horizontal Wikipedia viewing.
