I came here to see if WrA was having a similar discussion on the matter.
Sharding isn’t supposed to be used on our realms outside of end-game content zones (i.e the Shadowlands atm), but was turned on for pre-patch content and the expansion launch. I assume for a myriad of reasons, including the time crunch of a raid releasing next week and the holidays coming soon, Blizzard kind of … forgot about us.

I made this thread yesterday and it’s gotten a fair bit of traction; support by liking, sharing, or commenting in the thread would be really helpful for everyone, I think— Especially if we have something big that we can point to via tweets @BlizzardCS or @WarcraftDevs
We’ll get through it like we always do. Positive vibes.
