Eh dunno, sounded pretty fluffy to me. Dressing up the move to Square as some 'community' thing when it's likely simple pragmatism, and so on. (Though nowhere near as apparently rage-inducing the other guy found it lol.)

Can you show me an example of a goodbye post from a company that sounds less 'fluffy' than this?

There are plenty. Here's a few posted on HN:

RethinkDB was very straight forward: https://rethinkdb.com/blog/rethinkdb-shutdown/

Wattage too: https://rethinkdb.com/blog/rethinkdb-shutdown/

Hackpad from a few days ago: https://hackpad.com/

The above make their intentions unmistakably clear in the first line.

Those were good. Thanks for sharing. My standards have been raised.
