MODERATORS
"For me"
I know it's your opinion because you're the one saying it. And the construction of it is just weird. "For" me. I dunno.
on the internet everything is true. therefore if you don't preface your thoughts with "CW: opinion" your writing permanently alters reality and people will be angry at you for inconveniencing them.
imho.
Valid opinion on the phrasing. Disagree with the premise that anything someone says is necessarily their opinion.
Example: "For me, potatoes are easier to peel with a knife than a potato peeler" vs "Potatoes are easier to peel with a knife than a potato peeler". The former says that this is my experience and yours may differ. The latter says that this is true in general and if you find it easier the other way, there's a good chance you're doing something wrong.
