this seems a well-argued article to me the 'General directionless development' seems the most concerning point, I don't think the 'let's go with what the community ask\want' model is gonna work in the end.

what do you think?

Good article, I thought it was fair! As I don’t use reddit or twitter anymore I’m surprised at that comment, I know I’d heard some mumbling a around working with high fidelity assets but I didn’t realize it was that bad. I think the asset store has a higher ratio of good vs bad compared to others because of the lack of payment incentive, but I also only try out the popular plugins so I can’t speak about the rest.

I think the recent donations will help fund hiring devs to implement the features people actually want. Did they do the summer of code this year? It usually has some interesting developments, the revamped tile editor in 4.X started as a project there. The new color picker too, it’s so much better than the old one
