MC is on the decline. but i think the update was kinda okay. (like 1.11)

Yes. Even if I use Bedrock.

It is not dying, nor will it ever die.

Minecraft is not dying, it's just doing updating, but I know that the too much updated games don't end well...

I like parts of it, other parts I find useless or uninteresting. The Cherry blossom is a welcomed addition for sure and being able to use Bamboo as wood is nice too. Oh and the Camel, I like when they add new animals like that.

I don't think it's dying, maybe changing, or even slightly less popular but not dying.

Archeology seems like a miss to me - would have been nice if they built up more of the lore with it, the sniffer is meh.

It is good. Not the greatest of course, but also won't have yet another controversy. Quite similar to most updates before 1.13 where players didn't know what would be added, which I really like.

I like a few of the features nothing hype but its anough to be like 'oh thats cool' been having fun with the redstone skulk

It's not dying. They just need to add a little more wood to the fire.
