Evidently your high expectations came from being up high on a cross

I don't expect people to make zero mistakes, I expect people to not be belligerent when they make mistakes

You need to calm down

Pot, meet kettle.

If you look up, you'll be able to see my point. You might need binoculars.

His exact words:

Telemetry is important for desktop developers, you can negate it but it's a fact

I'm going to assume you know what the subject and object of that sentence are. Here's the thing about how language works on my planet: through the magic of a radical new concept called "context", we can accurately discern both meaning and normative statements from what people say and how they phrase it. In other words, "It's a fact that telemetry is important for desktop developers" is an ostensibly descriptive statement that also creates a normative statement in the same way that standing in the sun casts a shadow: it has to, it isn't optional. It's "Desktop developers who don't use telemetry are ignoring something that it's factual to say is important they not ignore". Please tell me you get it now, and that you don't need the rest spoonfed to you.

Is that really a fact? (No.) Wow, it's crazy how every desktop program that doesn't use telemetry isn't any good, according to you.

Yeah I've seen a few things get messed up by that idiotic rule. When you euphemistically say "reasons" in italics, it sounds worse than it is. I assumed you were trying to gently tell people "Google suspended the dev for being racist" or something.

I don't like bloat on my hard drive

So you installed GNOME? This is not the checkmate you think it is.
