I haven't even heard about it on Discord itself.

Anecdotal obviously, but I'm not sure it's a big news story on corporate media sites.

Huh, wow.

Could be I'm wrong.

It makes sense that it wouldn't be story on corporate news sites though.

They posted it on their Facebook page, there's a sizeable backlash there too.
