PEOPLE are fickle creatures, upset by the tiniest things.

Take Netflix for example.

The streaming giant recently updated its branding on its social media and app services, causing the internet to go into meltdown.

Moving away from the red and white display, Netflix introduced an elegant and bold “N” over a black background.

However, the company has been quick to clarify the new branding will not completely replace its predecessor.

“The N is an icon and a new creative element to live with our logo. The current Netflix logo is here to stay,” the company wrote on Twitter.

Since the change has been implemented, majority of users been divided.

"Hey let's change our icon so that we make finding our app as hard as finding a quality tv show/movie once they open the app" #Netflix
