I don’t even get how this would make them more money. Maybe they could sell the “OG” names they reserved, but that’s likely very little compared to all the people cancelling Nitro.
Many people, including myself, had Nitro just for the ability to choose a custom discriminator. Regardless of whether we liked the update, that reason is no longer valid.
The usernames stuff was stupid, but pray tell. How did users get “screwed out of their usernames”.
Did you know that when choosing a username you could just do your name and the number sans the hashtag and it’s functionality exactly the same as before.
It was a stupid change and unnecessary, but nobody got screwed out of anything.
I’m sure most people got the username they wanted, definitely more than 1% anyways. But if more than one person had the same username, people would be “screwed out of their username”
Now if someone wants the same name they’d have to add numbers at the end, or something stupid like xX_
Oh yeah sure, this would be cool and all if they didn’t screw 99% of their users out of their usernames first.

I lost my username. It sucked but I don’t feel screwed. I do feel like the username change was not necessary.
