I remember when the "News Feed" came out. Everyone (including myself) was outraged and demanded the Old Facebook be restored. There were petition groups "5 million likes and they'll bring back the old Facebook!!"... but it didn't matter and people got used to it.
You can imagine the same outrage if they changed Hacker News over night...
- padthai 7y agoI am not 100% sure that people got over it. Facebook lost me over changes to their feed: 1. Linear to non-linear 2. You need to pay to reach all your subscribers. 3. News, ads, noise in general. I think is very common for free apps to reduce the user experience quality after they reach a certain size. Quora lost me in a similar way.
