On the contrary, I think the feedback provided was excellent and far better than just saying “Doesn’t conform to our style guidelines, please try again”. Bravo Peter. This may be someone’s first submission and they may consequently not be a

Wish we wouldn’t use such language, “sucks less” is highly subjective and your opinion but we don’t need to disparage Slack in order to make a point that alternatives like Zulip are available. Seems like especially poor tone on an outage th

It certainly _feels_ like I’ve had more Prime orders not show up in 2 days, when viewing the last 6 months, vs. those before that. As a household we do about 400 orders a year on Amazon with a couple spikes around e.g. Christmas, but a cons
