Something that people don't seem to be aware of is that about all of this stuff has been in place for several years. If you go look at the old usage guidelines, the rules that everyone is yelling about are nothing new and have existed for a while.
For example, AntVenom says that server ranks are dead based on this:
You may make money by…:
Asking for donations, so long as you don’t offer the donor something that only they can use[.] However, you may offer all players server wide rewards if donation goals are met.
However, ignoring AntVenom's claim is refuted two bullet points later—
Selling cosmetics, except for capes or anything that attempts to visually act like the feature of a Minecraft player cape
—the old commercial usage guidelines, which were in place since at least 2020, say the exact same thing about donations as the new ones:
…YOU MAY:
ask for donations (as opposed to direct charges) IF you do not offer the individual donor something in exchange that only he or she can use. You may offer server wide rewards if donation goals are achieved though.
Yet, lo and behold, server ranks are still around.
Mojang isn't killing servers and maps. They're not going full 1984. These are pretty much the same guidelines that have been in place for at least 3 years—just with some clarification. Server ranks didn't die, maps with McDonalds in them weren't taken down, and unless you think the devs are suddenly going to go full evil mode when it would just actively hurt them, there's no reason for all of the fearmongering.
