I definitely saw a lower level of CD spawns than previous Community Days. But I suspect the weather and the fact that our local park is also next to a river and part of a water biome may not have helped with that. It felt like we were getting a similar level of CD spawn in both the park and the shopping area next to it and that the first hour was poor for Trapinch spawns in both areas but that things got better after that. I managed to get enough shinies to evolve an entire shiny line so I was very happy with that.
I loved the stardust burst event. I was on holiday during part of it in a really high spawn area so I did very well out of that :) The recent spawn point changes have been a bit hit and miss for me. Overall I think I'm seeing about 10% less Pokémon on my fifty minute walk into work in the morning, which isn't terrible but does make me a little bit sad as that's my main opportunity for playing during the working week.
The new wave of EX raid gyms has been really good for my local community. Our city center park has a gym that ought to have been EX raid eligible from the start but the park was wrongly tagged on Open Street Map. The OSM tag got corrected quite quickly but it's been a long time since Niantic updated from there. So it turned into an EX raid gym on Thursday and generated passes on Friday evening for a whole bunch of players who'd never had one before, which is great :)
This new spawn-point revision seems to be intensely uneven, and frustrating, and also mysterious. I do wish they'd just *communicate with their players* sometimes.
