Crescente (#20505) The distrust is because mainly there were a lot of issues during beta from what I heard, with the most prominent being that they did not listen to the userbase's feedback and criticism to the point where they would ban users who spoke up about issues. They also had a large KS, with only a few changes that people don't think justified the investment (I wasn't in beta and didn't donate so this is just what I've heard from the grapevine) so adding that together plus how they handled this, I can see why users are very salty with this update and what it means for the site and what it represents.
Granted I'm taking what I heard with a grain of salt because I wasn't here and I'm not sure what the KS offered and what was there during beta, but it explains why a large chunk of the responses here are angry.
This is a new site though, new sites do have a bumpy beginning, so imo I'd just wait and see.
