It was never quite that simple. It was a major management change but the working class settlers were given other options. And most stuck around with better property rights under the British than they were afforded by the Netherlanders. They received freedom of religion, freedom from prior conditions of servitude, and land. (True the land they were granted was less desirable then British settlers were offered, but they found themselves better off under British rule.) They became British but maintained their Dutch heritage.
The Dutch officials were not welcomed and those working class settlers that wanted to return to return to Europe were allowed to depart with such New World wealth as they had accumulated.
