I am using the site as a host, and I've noticed that no new features are introduced recently, instead the old ones are getting ripped off. A lot of them were actually quite useful for me. This lack of innovation kinda saddens me, it feels like Airbnb just unable to innovate and either swamped with a huge tech debt or focuses solely on integration with hoteltonight and other startups they've bought.
Everything’s goin on
They seemed to jump the shark once they started pushing experiences. Look, I'm not here to be sold an experience. I want a damn place to stay! Honestly, I've largely gone back to hotels because the quality is just too uneven with Airbnbs.
Oh yeah, the experiences. I kinda see why they're pushing it: with a recent crackdown on Airbnb in many of the cities they might want to diversify their business, also to cover new markets, but personally as a host and infrequent guest I really don't care about this experience thing either.

Avoid teams with only Chinese or Indians especially with a Chinese/Indian manager
Just don't cancel us on last second (typical trick that AirBnB hosts pull)
