Ok, now you’re just trying to get a rise out of me. And assuming you’re succeeding, as if you can read tone of voice and facial expression in online comments.

This is juvenile. Grow up. I will not respond beyond this, in fact I am blocking you.

I don’t care what DE you use, or which ones you like. Nor did I claim your problems weren’t real, or merely skill-related.

But something most people do care about, is having a reasonable relationship with reality.

You put forward a view that doesn’t hold water. One which is purely anecdotal and not even close to the universal experience considering the popularity of what you claim to be “janky in every conceivable way”.

Everyone here poured water into the sieve you thought was a bowl, and for some reason you’re still trying to have a discussion about whether it flowed right through.

That still doesn’t mean anyone’s trying gaslight you. It simply means there’s more to it than your one personal experience, and that your anecdotal conclusions are therefore premature.
