Updating how categories are organized on Meta

I think Automatically unpin topics refers to any manually pinned topic. And Default topics automatic unpin only refers to topics that the system pins by default, like the welcome topic and “About this category” topics.

I don’t think so

Official groups/posts

The first one hides the option from the user preferences, so no one can change this in their preferences on Meta. The second one is the default for the preference. At least that’s what I wrote here:

This doesn’t explain why topics don’t stay pinned for @mcwumbly? Did you change the pinned statuses manually?

Quite likely, but if so, it would have happened long enough ago that I can’t remember for sure.

But this seems the most plausible explanation.
