I've had many discussions with him and he has its own opinions, which
is fine. Although, I don't agree with them and I don't see a reason to
discuss with him further, as he is just against anything that is being
done or suggested. For me it looks like he wants that everything stays
as it is, but still complains about the current state.

That's a straw man.

Removal of unused or unusable groups has been done many times and only

While they aren't running archive sites, they are keeping articles due

You are hearing only what you want to hear and telling us that the
lurkers support you in email.

Some years ago we had the same discussion in de.*.

Clearly, then, you ignored objections from German speakers who were not
me whilst claiming there were no objections to ignore, My German isn't
conversational, so none of those objections you ignored came from me.

It's curious that you don't provide evidence that this action saved the
de.* hierarchy.
