Almost everything on this website is read, even if it isn't replied to every single time. Probably every post in this topic will be read.
Recommendations are one of the next features to come after the submissions rework ongoing presently, has been mentioned in quite a few places the past few weeks. User curated recommendations will be the first stage due to the higher accuracy and relevance, with machine learning coming at a second stage in the future.
A road map of previously-confirmed future features will also go live soon, as well.
It's good to know that feedback is noted.
Anilist has the unique opportunity (largely thanks to MAL's ineptitude) to grab a sizable portion of the Anime community.
I can only hope that the admins of Anilist are truly hearing all the feedback gathered here, and working their hardest to make Anilist as people want it to be. I gather that a lot of people are on the fence, with only few features missing, before they can consider Anilist their new home and submit content for the community.
So many have dedicated years to MAL that moving over requires much convincing. This convincing period might well be limited in time depending on what happens with MAL. I truly see the utmost potential for Anilist, but people tend to stay in their comfort zone unless all stars align. Them moving depends on you admins. I hope you work efficiently. Fast and smart! With grit!
