Silence, bot, the only thing worse than a pedant is one that isn't even correct.

One thing I'm not loving about going from reddit to lemmy is the amount of pedantry by people stuck somewhere between A and B on this graph.

Never heard of linguistics or prestige dialects, just go around parroting nitpicks they learned in 7th grade grammar classes.
