There were changes made to Steemit last night as you are all no doubt aware.
Some of the half-crazed reactions to it, inspired me to do a short animation.
I used to always do these but there hasn't been enough drama to do them about of late.
Until last night when Steemit released a long trailed change to split out the Wallet from the Steemit.com domain.
It wasn't perfect by any means. There are still a couple of bugs to iron out but hopefully, they will quickly get ironed out.
The reaction to the changes... Was it cheers and hip hip hoorays for all the hard work?
Nah. Instead, the utter bilge that was spouted in the comments was beyond hilarious. Threats of power downs and the Steem token diving into extinction.
I mean, seriously. Now, I can understand people being frustrated with the rollout and communication or lack of, in some opinions being a concern. I get that. People have a right to gripe and air their frustrations.
But some of the old timers and long term steemians that were threatening to leave/powerdown/masturbate themselves to a frothing fury death was just ridiculous.
Changes are gonna happen. I think we can do without the threats of oblivion.
We can certainly do without the people making them!
That's right, I said it. Come at me brohams!
