You can't throw around specific metrics ("two outages they had last year") then claim you were just sharing a personal anecdote when someone calls you out and brings receipts. Just take the L.



I absolutely can because this is a discussion. Being called delusional for sharing my experience on a platform I use _at least_ 40 hours a week was a bit much but in case you missed it, I relented. They brought receipts and I came down from my position because there was none. I wasn't arguing with anyone or saying anyone was wrong about anything.

Do you expect all of your conversations to be backed by facts and citation? Is that why the only comments you make are aggressive and confrontational? Because it's easier than the bar you're setting for everyone else? Yea, I looked back at your history, not a single url.

And now I'm taking a position.

> No worries you’re fine. I guess downtime was much more widespread than I could even imagine.

Did you miss that?
