Avrae and mobile app updates are appreciated of course, but this isn't the core product. More core product updates please!
It's worth asking what Wizards thinks the core product actually is. My suspicion is that they think the core product is "digital publishing", not tools, by which standard D&D Beyond is doing its job (you can buy digital copies of new books).
The changelog was hastily thrown together before Xmas. Read it carefully and note that there's a lot of padding out.
Other than mobile app and avrae updates, there is nothing of substance since Feb '22 when containers were introduced.
Remember when we'd be able to move items between party members, etc?
Just checked the update log to see what's new as it has been 15 months since the containers update in Feb '22. Avrae/mobile updates aside, there is still nothing new.
15 months since any real update to the core function of character sheet usage and associated tools.
Will there be no updates of any significance until the VTT arrives?
This article sums up my feelings toward WotC and DDB. Things were in a bad place before the OGL fiasco. But even now that they've ostensibly reversed course, I still see no reason to re-sub because that event just focused my attention on all the issues I had with their management beforehand including the lack of communication and abandonment of development.

It's a shame that the graph at the top of your linked article is totally misleading. It actually shows that 16 degrees in the first 1,000 metres, and only by 8 degrees over the next 6,000 metres - which is the opposite of "a gradually decreasing temperature. Then SUDDENLY there’s a point where it gets super-cold."

Sure, I mean the original thread makes no reference to that graph, but the point is still well taken.
One D&D is under development, so development for DDB hasn't stopped - it's just changed direction.
Blizzard said similar about Overwatch 2's PVE. And given that Blizzard and WOTC (especially over the course of events this year) have burned community trust significantly, I see little reason to give them the benefit of the doubt here.
I mean, hell, there are simple bugs that could be easily ironed out that haven't been touched in over 2 years (Fathomless Warlock's tentacle damage, for example). Those kinds of bugs should have been ironed out in a patch ages ago, yet here we are.

They want payers, not players.

...but I thought D&Done was going to be a seamless overlay with 5e - if that's the case there's no problem surely...
