It may be a bit anecdotal but we don't seem to have suffered for 
it. While NG traffic may be down, the Discord has been picking up 
quite a few new faces recently and text-traffic in there is as 
high as it's ever been. YMMV and all. 🤷‍♂️

IMO, the fact that it hasn't been a major problem would suggest 
that our current cadence might be a bit too intense. And a slower 
cadence would reduce updating/maintenance work for those of us 
who run build-farms.
