Rename "managers" to more accurately reflect their status.

Absolutely agree. Managers do not manage anything, so the name manager is nothing but misleading. I was very confused seeing ‘managers’ do literally nothing of use.

Managers can also remove projects, and change whether anyone can add projects or just curators. This means that the term ‘inviters’ would be inaccurate. Despite the significant reduction of manager permissions, managers are still ‘managing’ the studio. In my opinion, a name change would be completely unnecessary and waste the dev's time and resources.

Although managers currently cannot edit the title, description, and thumbnail of the studio, they can still invite/remove people, add/remove projects, and toggle whether everyone can add projects or not. They are still managing the studio with these actions, so I think that manager is still an accurate term for the status.

You wanna know what was completely unnecessary and waste of the dev's time an resources? Removing manager's permissions.

No lmao. If you were in a group project and you were doing so much more than everyone else, you're the only person worthy of being called a leader or manager of anything. Everyone else is only leader if they're actually doing stuff like you are.

Due to the 3.0 update, “managers” cannot manage the studio anymore. What they can do is invite people. Please rename the “manager” role to “inviters” to more accurately reflect this.

Edit: This is slightly tongue-in-check, by the way.
But they can also turn off comments and projects and remove so no support

I think Curator+ would be more accurate, since they can add and remove projects, invite people, and delete their own comments

To stop people being mad about it old studios can still have it called managers, and new studios can have it called curator+, or the same thing except the host chooses in old studios if it’s managers, or Curator+.

IMO, “managers” are still managers. They can monitor your studio and help you out. Being able to remove any project from the studio and invite or remove any member is a lot and the position is a relatively big responsibility, so I personally think “manager” is a pretty good name. 99% of the time, you don't need to be changing the title, thumbnail, or even the description to be considered “managing”.

(But I guess that depends on what you consider managing.)
