The point is not judging the content of the article on the headline, it's the needlessly antagonistic phrasing of it. I am expressing that it is very understandable that people scrolling would be bothered by seeing such posts.
As for the struggle sessions, the topic is quite controversial to begin with, and being honest, as a lurker of these posts for quite some time now, I never liked the manner in which you replied to people disagreeing in the comments. It's no surprise that these posts often turn hostile and unproductive. It's also important to realise that each post does not happen on an island, there's historical context in the community and instance. People being irked by one post and choosing to comment something have probably seen 3-4 other posts in the previous weeks that also annoyed them, and might reply with a tone of frustration as a result.
I put effort into replying to people constructively and try to spend the time to explain my position on the subject.
That is not always the case, you need to admit that. I have had plenty of interactions with you and sometimes you do not post constructively. You did it right here https://lemmygrad.ml/post/8081058/6476868
Yeah, I can put up with only so much trolling. I make an effort to be constructive, and when people can't acknowledge basic things like the fact that Django has boilerplate, it becomes pointless to continue.
I am glad that taking a look at your code, spending time examining it with a very serious, professional code review is considered "trolling".
Is your definition of "trolling" anyone who disagrees with you, even those that put serious thought and time into their replies?
My definition of trolling is you looking at over 40 lines of boilerplate and asking where is the boilerplate.
And just like the term "boilerplate" you are wrong on what the definition of "trolling" is, apparently.
Sure buddy
