This reminds me of a massive flame war when Atlassian switched to circular avatars for projects https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-28275 https://jira

  This is a pretty typical Atlassian experience. They push changes and will often ignore negative feedback which results in flames. When I had to use them at previous jobs, I had a couple of favorite threads that I liked to follow. One of these was "Hitting Escape key while editing issue description loses contents" [1] which took about five years to address. Another was "Was blame removed from source tree?" [2] where Atlassian decided to reference "blame" as "annotate" without announcing the change, but did it because "blame" is a bad word (there was more on that thread from the devs themselves, but they apparently have deleted their posts) [1] https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-36670 https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-36670 [2] https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Sourcetree-questions/Was-blame-removed-from-source-tree-Or-where-did-it-move-to/qaq-p/763394 https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Sourcetree-questions/Was-...

    Blame is a terrible name for that feature though
