Flow
Hello Sj, I'm rather sure that Flow is doomed to failure, on this path: it's not even trying to build upon the experience of past failures like LQT. (For instance, Brandon asks people on Quora what they find confusing in the English Wikipedia discussions but doesn't even try to read bugzilla and past discussions to know what was hard for our users and communities.) Considering that this will be a pain to watch till its death in a few years from now, and that my attempts to participate in the otherwise desert discussion here result only in trolling, what do you suggest? Will unwatching the page and closing my ears and eyes at the word "Flow" in the next few years enough to save myself the pain? Thanks, Nemo 06:47, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
 * I share some of your concern. Many large monolithic software changes seem to follow this pattern, both in our software community and others.  I"m not sure how to help avoid a painful outcome, other than by focusing on small frequent changes instead.  Sj (talk) 08:12, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Surprise surprise, it's now official: I didn't lose anything in the last 19 months, because nothing could be changed. Well that's honest and useful, I know for sure I can avoid looking at it for 19 more months without regrets. :-) --Nemo 10:16, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
