    Good afternoon. Vitriol? I’m not sure how you interpreted my post, but my intention was that in order to preserve the user experience of the person making the request, I would post elsewhere. That’s a concession I’m happy to make.

      You know what you sounded like.

      It’s a small text addition for context, not a big ask. Most of these upgrade posts in this community have people asking the same thing, so they can discover new software.

      Ultimately, though, it’s your choice.

        I’m genuinely unsure in which way I could possibly sound nicer telling someone that I’m willing to go anywhere where something that they don’t like doesn’t effect them?

          On the off chance that you truly don’t understand:

          The nice thing to do would be to accept the feedback and add a short description. It’s confusing to others why you are staunchly opposed to performing that small courtesy, and instead jump to never posting here again.

            Me: does something

            Someone: hey, do that another way

            Me: If you tell me where you won’t see it, I’ll go do it my way there as I like doing things my way

            Someone else: You’re being rude

            Me: I’m just saying I’ll go somewhere else

            You: The nice thing to do would be forced labour

            Me:

              Congrats on all the labor you saved.

              If you think folks here are uniquely unreasonable you could try lemmy.world/c/selfhosted .

                Just for the record, I’ve not said that anyone is being unreasonable. In fact I’ve not criticised anyone. If anything, I’m agreeing that the request is reasonable. I’m not trying to change to force it. I’m literally just trying to extract myself from a situation because peace of mind is a beautiful thing.

                  This is an extremely odd outlook to have. Good luck with it.

                  Unfortunately the answer to your question is to not post at all, though if your contributions are worthwhile then that is not an excellent solution
