I expressed my discontent to them as well and just received this reply:

"I'm afraid there is no way to disable this at the moment, and it's not in the roadmap to roll back on this feature. That said, we're still in the initial stages here, so our focus right now is listening to feedback as we consider certain changes for improvement as we move forward. You've raised some fair points here, so I've shared your feedback with my team for consideration in the future."

So their rollout methodology here was to go live with beta software, on production servers, to paying customers, and force them to find the bugs. Brilliant!
Sadly, that just sounds like "software development" these days.
They deployed it as an A/B test[0]. Which means they are blatantly lying about being able to roll it back.

It worked for Etsy.
I mailed them too, and got a human response instantly. They're good at that.
Yea, having about ~2K employees for chat app company also helps in getting human response

How can anyone remain a customer of such idiots?
