Please: no surprise liveries anymore. 
I have to admit that these livery designs that sporadically come with updates and look like Mattel and HotRoad toys are wellā¦ ehmā¦ not exactly my taste of art how I would airbrush a plane and therefore I am happy to be able to uninstall these.

What bothers me is that they originally had a Dev Q&A stream on the schedule for the Thursday after SU5 released. That was completely removed from everywhere, and the stream never happened. I suspect the reason for it, and Iām ok with that as I see it as understandable..I just really like the Q&As.

Where do you see when a new stream will happens? Iāve watched it once and I never found againā¦is it via youtube? Tks
Really? I never thought that. Are you sure you are referring to the official ones, and not something from https://flightsim.to/?
too naive to expect a Q&A sessions from the devs after a pile of bugs and downgradesā¦

iām not sure ācause thatās what the devs intentionally did so as to āincreaseā performance in SU 5 and they simply botchedā¦
I got the feeling that they will publish a livery pack with Jorg / Seb / and Martialās smiley faces on itā¦ as a surprise on Aug 18thā¦

As you say, it was intentional. I donāt think what we are seeing are ābugsā per se, but a deliberate attempt to get the sim to work on console, and that code happens to be the same for PC. They have to allow further divergence of the code to make better use of faster PC hardware.
This is nothing more than a repeat example of something I have been at odds with for decades: the PC multi-platform release.

They do them live on twitch, and upload them to YouTube later. (Sometimes two weeks later) They usually list the schedule somewhere on the weekly dev update, but they removed it from all of them.

Hi everyone,
Just to set expectations appropriately and ward off potential disappointment, the team does not have any surprise announcements beyond what has already been revealed (World Update 6, Top Gun: Maverick expansion) planned for the 18th of August. That said, weāre not ignoring the one year anniversary of Microsoft Flight Simulatorās PC release either! Join us this Friday for a Community Fly-In to visit Asobo Studio in Bordeaux. We also have an entire week of anniversary streams planned for September 6-10, hosted by TheFlyingFabio, Jayne and SeedyL, ForderLearnToFly, TwoToneMurphy, and our next live Q&A with the developers. Be sure to submit your questions for the Dev Q&A here.
Thanks,
MSFS Team

Hey Seedy! Glad to see you on the team! I just want to clarify what you meant here:
the team does not have any surprise announcements beyond what has already been revealed (World Update 6, Top Gun: Maverick expansion) planned for the 18th of August.
I hope this means āwe donāt have any additional updates coming Aug 18ā versus meaning āthe only 2 updates coming for rest of year are WU6 and Top Gun in late fallā - right? Meaning there will still be Sim Updates and World Updates for the remainder of this year?
I believe Jorg mentioned before there were plans to release another World Update this year besides Germany, and six others in 2022. This was before the Top Gun announcement, so I donāt know if we are getting both a World Update 7 AND the Top Gun expansion this year, or just the later.
I get the frustration (trust me) but please understand there are LOTS of people who test/beta test. We just canāt talk about it.
