And as for ‘you shouldn’t be using discourse’ well it might help if he actually did use it then he might understand what the users want
find it weird how they’re so obsessed with how all the individual forums that they’re not part of use their precious platform. still reading through and they’ve moved on to telling people that big rolling topics are bad and wrong. who cares ffs
Where are you reading this? Oh wait, found it. I feel like getting angry
oh it was linked upthread here
God imagine going to the pub with these guys
as if any of them have ever been in a pub
This reminds me of a job I went to at the weekend where ‘tech-guys’ worked. There were three of them and they were so snarky to each other. It was relentless. I got the impression that they got on fine with each other it was just the way they communicated.
eg.
“Have you seen the 5-way cable splitter?”

Oh yeah that was a bit annoying but I’d take that over losing my place all the time
Surprised no one raised the ‘you can see if a post has a reply already’ point before you. Also tend to use the search box to double check before I post mid thread too
except on mobile. which is annoying af.
i actually thought about jumping in and asking why they show that a post has a reply to it if you are supposed to read the whole thread before posting a comment, but i decided i don’t hate my life enough to get involved
I raised that separately as a request. He seemed baffled by the question
Dude, you have so many ‘bad habits’ , it seems…
Link him to the cycling thread.
Wait, I can see that on mobile
i can’t
