Boards are a lot more complicated than tags, and I don't believe automated tagging is particularly necessary. Anything that's going to get a mod tag should be getting the at least 5 minutes of attention it deserves anyways, and what does another 30 seconds of clicking really mean in that case?
No, I think that's the weakest response in this thread so far. S+I board is pretty abysmal and the only reason more people aren't complaining is because it's been abysmal for maybe
years now and they've given up on any change happening (is that ironic?).
More boards being bad is subjective as all hell and I don't think its a concern that even entered the head of anybody
ever. I hope this doesn't come across as aggressive or rude but I really hate your reasoning. Your first point clearly doesn't work at all - dev/community reform work is almost nonexistent and the way things are currently is proven to be not helping. Would a rework of S+I help? I don't know, nobody can know that, but what is evident is that what we currently have is shoddy and would be just as effective if it was removed entirely.
You're even against the auto-tagging? Something that would let devs sift through filler and find the areas they want to work on is a
bad idea? For example Lite is currently doing a lot of work on clans, and shev is focusing mostly on the torishop features.
There are no devs right now who are so ridiculously active to be taking on several projects at once, and unfocused dev time is bad enough even if it were possible.
I really can't see where your stance on this is founded.
