I don't see any of this being a win win to be honest. Every post I see is a seller having problems that are not being solved. Hang in there
A lot of that would have to do with fourms like these being default-problem solving / reporting and / or outright complaint outlets.
MP is definitely having numerous issues, and i don't see it as a nett positive for sellers overall even if / when everyone who can be switched has been and it's functioning at an acceptable level for everyone (or most), but for those that are chugging along just fine with it, it would probably be interpreted less than favourably to post that in threads where issues are raised (unless it's relevant in some way), and the most common response when people do that (or so I've personally noticed) is to be accused of eBay-apologia, or being an employee propagating pro-eBay positions, or (as this has the potential to be interpreted as) not caring about (or being ignorant of) the problems, or dismissing them etc etc, so that sort of post won't crop up as often as the complaints / criticisms of eBay.
What gets me the most about the issues that have arisen, is that eBay had literal years to prepare for this, but in typical fashion it feels like they rushed everything last minute without much consideration or testing. 
I'm already in their pocket..... They sent me a thermos-style travel mug and a black tote bag earlier this year. 
As goodie bags go, it was scant, but one could still say I've been bribed, none the less, lol. (The mug is standard but the tote has a big white eBay logo on it, though is surprisingly decent quality - I looked up the company who makes them, and they're not the cheapest around, plus are an Australian-owned & operated business, so that was at least a nice touch on an otherwise relatively token gesture - still, they're getting a lot more use than the branded packing tape ever did).
