There is no point in doing this abbreviated garbage. You can't stop the "issues" by not showing the full number. People will still give updates and exact numbers of how far they are from certain sub goals regardless of your change.pic.twitter.com/B34PRFc0nA

It's funny. I think its isnt important for the display to say the entire number. Abbreviations still give us enough info. But I had no idea they were pushing this as a mental health thing lmao we all know that isnt the reason

Comes off to me more like some weird back end technical thing some suits thought would benefit the site. Idk though. Honestly they could have just changed it and no one would have given a shit. Idk what the big difference between 1100 and 1.1k is. Its literally the same info

People don't like change

I think it is more so that while a minor change, it is change that no one asked for or wanted for the most part. It is not the worst thing ever. However the fact that it is just done for no real reason and the reason they did give was a veil in a way.
