First of all:

Just use this other thing instead” has never been a good faith solution

Bullshit. That is very often an excellent solution!

Second, the thing this post was made in response to is as follows, and I quote:

Sometimes people just want to be able to complain about Windows or iOS without being told about Linux.

...

If the obvious reply to the post is "use Linux," as a rule, do not post that. You are not adding anything.

I counter with this: if you [speaking generally, the same way the the original post was -- not referring to @prettybunnys specifically] know the obvious reply you're gonna get is "use Linux" and you don't want to hear it, don't fucking post your complaint in the first place because you [again, speaking generally] aren't adding anything! You [still speaking generally] are not entitled to complain and then tone-police the responses you solicited! Who the fuck do you [even more speaking generally] think you are, to believe that you have the right to bother us publicly with your problems [continuing to speak generally, and that part makes it obvious because "your problems" refers to Windows problems and @prettybunnys apparently has a Tux tattoo] but we don't have the right to 'bother' you with the solutions to them in response?! How is that behavior anything other than incredibly toxic and condescending?

I was using "you" in the general sense the same way the post I was quoting used it, not to address @prettybunnys in particular. In fact, I'm well aware that specific-you was not among the general-"you" I was addressing, as I referenced people with "your [Windows] problems" and specific-you had made it clear that you're a Linux user. (Cute tattoo, BTW, although I'd have believed you even without the picture.)

Anyway, I apologize for not making that clear enough. I should've noted it explicitly like I did in this other comment, but I thought the context was sufficient. Or maybe I just got lazy, and have no good excuse. Either way, personally attacking you was not what I intended.
