Post OP and others continue to downvote - yet can’t counter.

Personally, I was turned off by you saying that the other commenter was being "A bit disingenuous." just because you disagreed with them, despite the fact that I otherwise agree with your point.

I stand by that. It is a bit disingenuous (purposefully or ignorantly) to call 11% “en masse”.

[-] bitcrafter@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago

So you genuinely think that the commenter was being insincere by making that remark?

[-] rowdyrockets@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

I don’t attribute it to malice. A misleading claim is just that, misleading, whatever their intentions.

It’s alright if we disagree.

The problem is that the word "disingenuous" does not mean "misleading", it means "insincere". So when you say that someone is being "a bit disingenuous", you are necessarily commenting on their character, not just their claim.
