That is not true. Current recipe downloads some articles and others not.

We all decide how we handle and value our time. So my critera there are mine alone. I am not complaining that you wrote a recipe. Please do. Do as many as you can. Rewrite all of them if you can do better.Community will be better off.
I am just complaining about attitude - "this recipe is shit so here is another one".

I am not demanding anything. The reason most of my recipes are simple is just that. If I need to spend more than 30m to do some recipe for which I have no personal interest than I don't do it.
