How much appetite would there be for shorter windows on the Open Threads? Having one every 4 days would have some advantages:

  • The material would be spread out more evenly through time, rather than having the majority of the posts in the first few days of a new thread
    • The start day would vary over time

I am not sure if you are aware, but the OTs have been a monthly rather than weekly event for years until a few months ago.

At any rate, I am generally not convinced that a further reduction is needed, as it will 1. It might make people even more confused as to when to post them 2. It is generally becomes more 'spammy 'and 3. The benefits of a further reduction are questionable.
