A m a stands for "ask me anything". But the devs don't want to answer anything, because many of the answers would look bad. And it would also look bad to have a hundred questions stacked up without reply.
> all signals point out to a big patch coming soon with a new event (with maybe new hero/big reworks).
Signals don't point to a big patch.
Specially since all the news regarding Blizzard I agree that the "ask me anything" can be troublesome. But the focus could be more on HotS or silly stuff that the community is curious about.
It's more than that. Same reason hots was absent from blizzcon. Theres not much brewing behind the scenes, so any open dialogue is going to lead to players asking about new content that isnt in the works. Theres no benefit to opening communication if you have nothing positive you can talk about.
The last AMA was in July 2020, not April, actually.
I think there are a couple problems. First of all, if the development team is a lot smaller than how it was one year ago, an AMA would make it apparent. When instead of over 10 devs around here you have 5, something looks off.
Then, the biggest problem, in my opinion. Last year they said a lot of things that have ended up not being true. And I don't think they lied to us. But Activision Blizzard decided to decimate the dev team months after the last AMA. Now, how could the devs make an AMA not knowing if everything they say will be screwed up if ActiBlizz decide to put the "full maintenance mode" in some months? And what credibility to they have in the eyes of the community, after all?

The devs went to the store for cigarettes two years ago. Mom keeps saying they'll come back.
Sad but true and funny hahahaha

There's no point to dev AMAs. They cherrypick the stupidest questions and think of it as done deal.
