@ssokolow @mrfoxh what the hell is that reasoning? If you don't care for their opinion just go your merry way lol
Signal to noise ratio.
Aside from possibly making them feel better, it doesn't benefit anyone for them to drop into a topic about thing X and say nothing but "I use thing Y. I don't like thing X." and it wastes other people's time either scrolling past it or clearing out their RSS reader, depending on how they follow things.
@ssokolow rather than snarkily point out that the comment was not substantiated and dismissing it, you could also simply politely ask for clarification. "What is an aspect of React you don't like?"
@beeb @ssokolow exactly 👍
Fair. That would have been more constructive... I think I didn't do that because it still would have felt like encouraging off-topicness.
