    You either just moved the goalpost on me or suck at making a point.

    My problem is that your comment can be read as an endorsement for self-hosted solutions and a denouncement of commercial solutions. Even if you do know better now, your comment still clearly blames the service, and holds up your own solution as “better” when best practice is doing both.

    You have your own backups, because they might screw up, but you also have backups on their system, because you might screw up.

      You’re picking a fight in the comments section of a meme post. Grow the fuck up.

        Yes, I took issue with how you wrote your initial comment and what readers might take from it, and that’s where it could have started and ended. Yet, I’m not the guy who retorted with “you missed the entire point” while missing the entire point.

        Nor am I the guy who pulled out “grow up”. Very effective… If you don’t have an actual retort, shut the fuck up.

            Two people talking, doesn’t mean either is getting through to the other, unfortunately.

            And by taking the “haahaa, you replied” angle, you’ve now revealed your goal to be something other than changing someone’s mind. But rather, to annoy, to get back at someone.

            Very noble.

              No you idiot, I didn’t want this argument. You’re trying to force it upon me and I am deflecting because I am not interested. Go touch some grass. You’re all over this comment section doing shit like this. Grow the fuck up, get a hobby and go bother someone else, asshole.

                Then why are you replying? Why do you even need to deflect? I didn’t comment for you, I already explained my reason was to add a second take where I felt the first one was half-assed, for others to read.

                My goal isn’t to bother you, not even now, meanwhile you yourself keep replying with nothing but vitriol. Why can’t you just… Stop? Why did you start in the first place? My comment was perfectly complementary to yours, but you chose to take offence and be rude about it.

                Like I said a bit more harshly already, if you don’t have anything to say, why are you talking?

                And why are you mad at me for saying it, when I did have something to say? You keep telling me to grow up and touch grass, but you’re the one who can’t keep from strawmanning.

                  I check my notifications during my breaks. I also wanted to see how much time you would waste writing back to me in an argument I didn’t want to participate in. I only read the first sentence by the way 😏

                    Since you admit to an attention span insufficient for more than a sentence, I’ll start splitting up what I have to say into bite-size chunks.

                    You’ve all but admitted you’re here out of spite, with no interest in actually showing you have ground to stand on. I’m keeping this going because that makes the only way out for you to let go of this emotional bullshit. To pull yourself together enough to choose to stop when you’re acting like an ass.

                    Get better material, the “lol ur wasting time” argument can literally be defeated with an uno reverse card.

                    Again, if you don’t have something with logical value to say, shut the fuck up.

                    This isn’t a argument, you started shit-slinging, not realizing I’m just as good at that as I am rational discussion.
