It’s very akin to reddit ~10 years ago. Grammar nazis, “um actually” and pedantic debates are everywhere. You just have to not engage and consistently remember the other guy is probably a sweaty nerd who cares way more than you do.
The worst part is the pedants aren’t even right most of the time. I’ve seen so many people complaining about perfectly acceptable sentence structure.
I tell myself they’re just younger folks that have been failed by their schools, but then I get sad that they’re younger folks that have been failed by their schools.

Actually, it’s not always young kids, we all suck at grammar and that’s okay. If clear communication took place, who cares?
The problem is that they’re not recognizing clear communication and yet assume anything that confuses them is a mistake made by another.
Let’s be honest - we’re all sweaty nerds here
I actually have a sweating disorder where I sweat all day. I’m also a software engineer.
I finally feel like I belong.
