    OK. You can downvote this as many times as you want to. You can kiss my happy butt goodbye. Enjoy your next story about Musk’s bowel movement.

      People don’t like the article (and it’s click bait headline). Not the subject itself, and not you.

      Take a breath.

        I’ll not take the time to submit tech news to people that bury that news because they read something into a headline I didn’t create. I don’t need a breath. I need to stay away from such people. We’ll both be better off.

          I don’t know what you’re missing here - the headline, which you didn’t create, is misleading. People don’t like misleading headlines because it’s giving the wrong impression of a successful mission.

          You are taking this personally.

          Yes, you do need to take a breath. Enjoy your day.

              Interesting. So is taking a beating and not complaining a sign of maturity to you?

                  It’s a question you refused to answer. I suspect your idea of mature is to never speak out, which is not mature but subservient

                    You posted an article you didn’t write, people reacted to the article (mainly its title), you took people’s reactions as a personal attack while simultaneously claiming no responsibility for what people are actually reacting to.

                    Grow the fuck up.

                    This ‘beating’ you’re refering to; ie the continued downvotes, is because you continue to act like a god damn child.

                    To answer your question directly:

                    Yes, complaining about people reacting to someone else’s content you’ve posted as if they are personally attacking you is incredibly immature.

                    So is continuing to tantrum about it once your poor behaviour has been explained to you repeatedly.

        There are a ton of much better articles

        Fine. You post them. Last I see a contribution from you to this sub was 2 months ago. Something about a Wikipedia mod.

          It would be beneficial for all here if you could learn to not take things so personally, and take in some fair criticism about this particular post. But please stick around, the topic of the article is definitely interesting, thanks for that!

          It’s already been posted. That would be a repost. Not every piece of ultrainteresting news I find concerns technology. And no, my last contribution was about stackoverflow proposing to allow some duplicates, which you should definitely read.

          Thank you for posting. My issue is with the use of scare quotes in the title. It’s a terrible title and because of it, I won’t give them my click. Any organization that would use that title is only doing yellow journalism (or is so bad at writing that they dont see how it reads.)

          Maybe edit out the quotation marks in the title.

        Originally this post was well past double figures downvotes. That puts it beneath a threshold to be displayed on any page. Why would a person spend the time to submit something no one would see?

      Vote manipulation, especially whining about downvotes, will get you downvotes. (Should get you banned outright.)

            Don’t use salt. It’s bad for the heart. I do like his attitude, though. Finding a way to blame and penalize me is just the kind of nonsense that justified leaving this sub.

              Just leave then if you are really that bothered. You are taking fake internet points way too seriously. It does not seem to be working out too well for your mental health there.

                If you read what I wrote, you would know that I already left the sub. But you’re not interested in what I already expressed just as you’re not interested in my mental health. All you’re really interested in is kicking someone when they’re down. Surprise, MFer, it’s not me.

                  No not interested in kicking you while your down. You are still replying to every comment on this post, so have you really left the sub? I seriously hope you have a better day and learn to not take everything so personally.

                    Bwhahaha, I told you I wasn’t down. You’re not interested because you can’t do it.

                    I submitted this article so of course get all updates.

                    Sorry your diminishing didn’t work. Maybe next time.
