      There's such a fine line between people genuinely wanting to help in a charitable way, and people who "help" by flaunting their knowledge condescendingly, assuming you don't know how to do the thing😶 it's so hard to tell them apart sometimes

      I think a lot of my frustration is less about intent and more about phrasing and presumptions for example, say I'm coding a thing, where someone thinks a lerp might solve my issue, and they want to comment on it let's explore some different ways of saying that!

      "you should just use a lerp here, it's a function to blend between two values" • "just" implies I overlooked the smart simple solution • "should" implies I'd be doing something wrong if I don't do it • explaining lerp implies I don't know what lerp is • hence, condescending

      "you could use a lerp here" • better than the previous one, although • "could" is often used even when people don't actually fully know whether or not it actually can be used in my case, yet is stated as if it's definitely a solution

      "could you use a lerp here?" • much better • direct question, suggesting lerp while at the same time asking if I've already considered it, which, is very likely • remains humble and soft by acknowledging that their suggestion might not apply • I don't have to defend myself!

      There's such a massive difference between these phrases to me during those days I stream when chat is dominated by the more condescending types, versus days where it's dominated by the charitable types, it's like, night and day - it affects my mood so much
