For some people this will be welcome news as many suggestions and bugs languish there (literally) for years.
Hopefully the new Goodreads Help will allow the correct identification and prioritising of issues?

You can read about the announcement and check out the Beta version of the help site here:

This way people won't be aware of as many bugs not fixed or ignored by Goodreads for years.I seriously doubt they're going to list all active bugs on the help page - I've had some threads not resolved there since 2014 that they said they were looking into.

To me it's a loss for members, but it will make it easier on Goodreads staff, especially if they do more unpopular changes that would upset the Feedback group.


Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) | 6535 comments Someone started a group to copy over some of the existing bugs. Also suggestions, tips and workarounds, which many found useful, but won't make it over to the help section. Here is the group for anyone interested: Info to save from feedback group

They definitely need a better way to communicate with members. I’m not sure this is the answer, I think like you say it will be easier for staff.
I have a bug there that is now 3.5 years old. It is kind of tiresome to keep being told it is being looked into
