Rachana Kumar from Etsy shares the process they took to sunset 3 customer-facing projects. The method (announcement, feature flags, "purchase draining", how to clean the code etc.) is useful, and more so - the culture of knowing to say goodbye to things that don't move the needle - is what makes Etsy a special company. Being brave to share that and how they approached it is something very companies do.
