I believe many folks were using the other features that go beyond streaming… E g. Setting up alarms, streaming music from their locally hosted servers, etc. I believe all that went away with the new app. I never noticed any issues personally, since I just steam/cast.

I’m a birder. Lots of birds were named after people…Scott’s Oriole for example. You may think a guy named Scott discovered the bird, but nope, just a friend of the guy that did. Scott wasn’t a good guy according to history (re: killing native Americans), so there’s a big committee that’s going to rename a ton of birds that have eponymous names. The birding community is very split on the topic and it’s interesting to see the drama.
