There is a danger inherent with comfort.
People come with natural faults. We find some of those flaws attractive. One may recall a conversation involving a couple speaking on how charmed he/she was with the other's quirk(s). We find some irritating. One may think about the aggravation caused by another's imperfections. Ultimately we learn how to handle what we find annoying in order for our lives to achieve or retain an acceptable measure of pleasantness.
One curious eccentricity exhibited by a considerable number of humans is how we become comfortable with how something we don't own is and grouse when that same something we don't own undergoes a change.
Case in point: the recent updates to groups and the addition to this site of the downvote emoji.
This was a decision made by the owner(s) of Similar Worlds. They recognize the value of informing members of the changes and are open to feedback. Should a reversal come about due to significant blowback so be it. Still and all they hold the final word. We are members. The financial requirements to join this site were exactly zero. One may pay for the privileges granted by becoming a V.I.P. but ownership in the site does not come with said paid membership. We are users of the site. We are not owners.
A question of abuse on the downvote emoji has been brought forward. That is a possibility considered by the owners, administrators, and moderators. If the use of the emoji is abused to the point or creating troubles the aforementioned group will apply the appropriate remedy.
When one complains one should remember where one is standing.
