Maybe by setting the expectation that the user will hate the update, when it becomes available to everyone it won’t be as bad as expected and thus more easily accepted.

Whatever take the attention away from the unskippable 30 second ads!

Nah they'll still hate the update and then call the journalist a shill for trying to put a positive spin on the change.
