Yes, particularly in the Theme component and Plugin topics, I’ve found some great additions to our instance that way.

@JammyDodger

It has gone a bit squiffy though and seems to be prioritising less useful topics. As a now casual browser, I can’t pinpoint exactly when it happened, but the difference does seem noticeable.

Indeed, we tried to come up with a way to prioritize newer topics, so it applies a penalty proportional to the topic age.

Looks like that backfired, and it hurt the quality too much

I have disabled the penalty here on Meta and will revisit.
