    Everybody has a breaking point, right? This could have been the breaking point for many people.

      I’m looking at this as “various little breaking points” some very trivial, but when taken as a whole, could break someone’s tolerance, causing someone to be an eX-user.

      Something that literally makes no difference, like a name change?

        There’s a reason McDonald’s isn’t called Kroc’s.

          If McDonald’s changed their name it works make no difference at this stage.

            I don’t think you understand how important branding is.

              I do, but it’s irrelevant when a company has 500 million users.

                Those examples I showed you are companies the size of Twitter. It affected sales in a major way. Many of them had to walk it back.

        No difference to you. If indeed people left because of that then it made a difference by definition.
