gollark: Someone NOT on the server making and compiling the video?
gollark: A good video could be made on this but it might be better with an outside perspective.
gollark: Anyway, to summarise the rest of it, as I'm sure you've seen, eventually the reshuffling thing began actually happening in earnest, and today another thing happened (I forgot what), various people left, more of them joined new esolangs without leaving, and palaiologos pushed ahead with stricter rule updates in a rather authoritarian way.
gollark: Yes.
gollark: Anyway, at some point palaiologos seems to have decided that the server needed a substantial overhaul.(For video purposes you should of course find screenshots of all this stuff; I think much of it was in staff chat though)
