Hello everyone,
I don't know if it's just me, or if it's because of the hot temperatures at the moment, but Migipedia somehow has hardly any new comments, hardly any communication.... there is almost no more activity on Migipedia.... in some subcategories the newest threads are already 2 weeks old.
Why is that? What is your opinion on this?
In my opinion, many ideas have been brought in here. A lot of input, but hardly any output. Be it with the many requests for light-colored Legerbrot, Alpro milk, more vegan food, etc..
There was also a request to offer a list showing whether the product will be removed from the range or has already been removed...
In the past, the M-Budget toilet paper was complained about, x weeks later the old product was on sale....
However, in the last few weeks or 2 years, there has hardly been any response to the echo of the migipedians.
This has also made me less and less active in posting my comments here...
What is your opinion? What should be done to make Migipedia even more active?
All replies (33)
True, the activity is quite meager.
I would do more surveys/crowdsourcing to attract new users and just generally
promote Migipedia more in general... If every umpteenth Migros buyer were registered here, things would certainly be
would look very different.
Or, as you've already said, respond to requests as we used to...
Hello EEnergie and MigrosWiesel,I have also had the impression for some time that the exchange - especially the discussions among several users (and guests!) over several posts and days - has decreased on Migipedia.in my observation, the more concise communication, limited to one-off statements and product reviews, ceased soon after the new Migipedia version went live, namely after the lively transition phase, during which initially concerns and wishes with regard to the new Migipedia and then various criticisms and (technical) problems determined the posts after its creation.Although the changes introduced with the new version are hardly the sole cause of the shorter, but also more focused messages, I remain convinced that the exclusion of guests has seriously affected the communication (and image) of this (open to all?) platform. Quite a few of the (re)questions that were subsequently discussed intensively were posed by guests - such as the exciting discussion about what makes Migros and what makes Coop better, the search for nuances of vanilla, and so on.My (perhaps false) impression that especiallya) those news articles that tell of personal opinions, likes(/dislikes), experiences and memories and inquire about themb) the user portraits, which basically shed light on similar things, stimulate more extensive contributions, seems to me to indicate once again the importance of the individual and collective experiences (with Migros products in the present context) associated with various emotions. The "Hit parade of the top 100 favorites" offers an overview of widespread product preferences, but hardly changes perceptibly and does not provide any more differentiated insights or background information with the mere illustrations. Individual mini-lists created by as many Migipedia visitors as possible on frequently asked questions, e.g.- Five Migros products that you miss the most- Which ten Migros products accompany you through practically every day? Three products that Migros should definitely introduce- Which six Migros products were/are you disappointed with?- What are your four favorite products from the Migros fruit/vegetables/beverages/meat/fish/bread/yoghurt/cheese/beverages/Anna's Best/frozen/spices/organic/chocolate/non-food [etc.] range? Or even more comprehensively: Three urgent problems to which Migros should find a solution (for which suggestions could be collected on Migipedia) seemed to me to be much more interesting compared to this hit parade.What and whether anything at all "[should] be done" so that "Migipedia becomes even more active" is a good question, ideally to be discussed together. So thank you @EEnergy and MigrosWiesel for this suggestion.like MigrosWiesel, I would welcome "more surveys/crowdsourcings", possibly also a 'question of the month' or even 'question of the week'. On the other hand, it's difficult to force the wave-like phases of lively exchange on Migipedia - and that's a good thing. It could just as well be that the above impressions do not really apply, or rather - as you write, EEnergy - are regularly observed in these summer months and have perhaps long since been verifiable in Migipedia statistics. hoping for further views and with kind regards, maripac
I have also noticed that activity has decreased!
As already mentioned, especially in the forums.
I wouldn't necessarily say yes to this phenomenon when searching for ideas.
Well, you probably don't have something to write about every topic, even I don't. I actually have a quick look every day, but usually only write at the weekend, unless I have a suitable answer?
Maybe it's seasonal?!??
A question of the week or month would be a really good idea!? Should be pursued further, would certainly lead to interesting discussions.
A "What I always wanted to know" section would, I think, also be interesting. There, for example, a product could be presented spetziell, with history and anecdotes, etc. e.g. Christmas stollen has an interesting history, interpretation, etc.?
Of course there is a lull from time to time. But you can all help to overcome this and generate ideas or questions.

Hello everyone
On behalf of the entire Migipedia team, I would like to thank you for your constructive suggestions. We have also noticed that the forum has become somewhat quieter. It is not our intention to determine the topics that are discussed in the forum. As Migipedia users, you are in control of what you want to discuss and how intensively. However, it is our task to create the best possible conditions for discussions. We are therefore considering making the forum on Migipedia clearer, for example by reducing the number of sub-forums. This would mean that there would automatically be more going on in each area and nobody would miss a topic just because they hadn't come across it. What is your opinion on this idea?
Good idea.
You could actually reduce the number of forums to three:
Migipedia
products
Other forums
I think that's a very good decision. ?
I've been linking the same threads for years so that like-minded people can get together. ?
I find it quite confusing here. When I subscribe to feeds, I don't get the most important things. Back in the days of iGoogle, I could subscribe to the latest headlines from Migipedia and never miss anything. This compact information could also be sent by newsletter, and I can decide for myself how often I want to receive it.
It's a good idea for me too!
That way everything can be "centered" a bit.
The posts would probably find readers more quickly.
Hello Silvia,
I think a drastic reduction in the number of sub-forums, as suggested by MigrosWiesel, is a very good idea - and I would like to take this opportunity to thank Istanbul for its many years of linking work.
