Where do I post to express appreciation for optimisation?

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post about this, but with the release of Shadowbringers I wanted to express to the dev team about how much I appreciate their efforts to optimise the game and keep it manageable for folks like me with older machines. Honestly, it feels like XIV is running even better than before Shadowbringers, with my frame rate being around 5-10 FPS higher than before.

I dunno, I just had a sudden pang of gratitude while I was walking through the Crystarium and noticed just how smooth it felt to walk around. (World Visit System works great for this too - was able to avoid placing stress from loading players characters on my laptop by visiting Twintania. Avoided much of the login queues as well!)

I wonder, if we were to deliver messages of thanks to the dev team, or highlight things we are particularly impressed with - is there a particular place to post? There have been several moments over my time with XIV where I've been impressed about something and I wish I could let the dev team know about it! If any of you game devs are reading this - thank you. Your hard work goes a long way into making my day a more enjoyable one.

I also value the candidness of the latest notice on the Lodestone regarding the issue with the frame rate cap and issues with game stability. I hope it gets fixed soon!

Honestly I'm wondering the same thing. The game has run smoother for me, but when shadowbringers first came out my frames looked off. Everything that moved left behind a black shadow and it was bugging me. They hotfixed the frame rate issue back to how it used to be, and now it looks all beautiful again ^-^ I wanted to thank them for doing that but I'm not sure where to do it.

I also want to thank them for removing the frame rate cap... Even though I only get about 87 FPS on average, I was having terrible stutter, which made exploring the new zones less fun for me. I wasted a lot of time trying to smooth things out. But now my game looks silky smooth again. Yay!
