No, that's totally fine, and I'm being completely serious. Sometimes it's hard to remember that this community is much smaller and tighter than the ones I'm used to. It honestly never occurred to me that y'all would, like, actually know each other, which is my own bias.
Thank you for being understanding and I hope this interaction hasn't soured your experience of this platform 💜
No, absolutely not. By Reddit standards, this was a tiff. Maybe a smaller tussle. Definitely not a kerfluffle.
Besides, part of this is a "me" problem. I'm still adjusting to not having to come out of the gate swinging the first time I sense hostility. Did I respond to an energy? Sure. Did I respond to an intentional energy? .....eh, maybe, maybe not. Did I go from 0-100 too fast? Probably. What I'm saying is, I see how I could have handled that better. And the fact that you took the time to engage with me over it is a big positive for the platform.
