It's good that recently you and your team have tried to have more contact with the users of the platform but I still feel like you're treating us / them in the old way of things, with partial information designed with a purpose, instead of just plain information about what's going on.

There's just not enough information here to know anything of value, except that you acknowledge publicly your layoffs and are trying to make sure your users to not panic. Nothing about why you relied on the STEEM price at what it was like, what your contingency plans were / are (if any), etc.

It's especially typical and in bad faith considering the recent remarks about your other project, keeping the line on SMTs, and even Facebook ads. Communication in good faith does not produce surprises like this. While you are free to run your business as you choose it's clear to me that you lack a fundamental respect for the users who are underpinning the network. I hope this changes some day.

What we see here are excuses and a bad massage.
