This is incredibly soulless, I seriously wonder how much all these renames will actually benefit your stock price.

i think roblox will rename everything and be a diffrent platform that will not going to be roblox anymore
that change might lose players or going to be worse
Iâve already made some posts in this topic, but here is a summary:
This update is pathetic and ridiculous.
If Roblox wants to create a dating platform, they should develop a new app. Let Roblox be a gaming platform! What will happen to all the popular games (sorry, I mean experiences) like Grow A Garden if Roblox becomes a dating platform? This makes no sense!
The people in charge at Roblox should start listening to their community if they donât want to lose their entire player base.
If I were the Roblox employee who published this post, I would feel stupid, especially because Roblox is being roasted in the replies from literally everyone.
Itâs just ridiculous. Please stop doing this, Roblox!

I was actually serious in my previous post. Why should I care if they renamed something to something else when the functionality is better. From what we know, Roblox renamed their term âGamesâ to âExperiencesâ to avoid a lawsuit from Apple (Remember what happened to Fortnite). And most likely something similar is going on here. Sure, friends do sound better, but does it really matter? To me, itâs just not a big deal.
two words, unfiltered chats. there are people out their that already use this platform to talk to children but now there will be a way for minors to unfilter chats which makes it even worse
They can name it plenty of other thing, my personal favorite would be âBondâ as it could be a bond of friends or a bond of a blooming love like they want dating
Edit: Connections feel like a robotic word

The DevForum is quite possibly the most accepting department (other than Robloxâs puppet staff members) when it comes to bad updates.
You know somethingâs awful when even the dev community hates it.

I strongly disagree with this sentence â âFriendsâ is a much better term for many reasons:
1. Every online gaming platform uses the term âFriends.â Itâs familiar, simple, and universally understood.
2. âConnectionsâ can be misleading, especially for new users who might not know if it refers to friends, followers, or people youâve simply played with once.
DO BETTER ROBLOX!!!

Hopefully thisâll go down the same path dynamic faces went - silently cancelled with no official response to the backlash.
You canât forget Experiences using Marketplace Items - Policy update
That update had so much backlash they announced the cancellation instead of being silent.

Probably not.
Marketplace is still set as âcatalogâ, and experience pages are still listed as âgamesâ.
Already got the ratio part down 
Iâve got a great feeling about this
