Internet users, generally speaking, tend to dislike design changes. Every new font change or interface color tweak is usually good for a day's tweet cycle as people get out their knives to eviscerate the shift, so you can imagine what the reaction might be like when the change involves cryptocurrency and NFTs.
Well, imagine no longer: Discord CEO Jason Citron teased upcoming integration between the gaming-focused chat platform and Ethereum on Twitter, leading to an outpouring of outrage and disappointment. His tweet currently has more than 3,000 replies and 5,000 quote tweets, many of which are people saying this is a bad idea, promising they will cancel their paid Discord subscriptions, and suggesting that this is overall an ill-advised hop onto a bandwagon that's currently on fire.
