You know, being new here I really tried to keep myself from replying to you. I really did. Between the time you responded and now I’ve stopped several times, but I just can’t not.
When something like this happens and after a long struggle a person hits a roadblock and they ask for help, a lot of responses are appropriate. Offer help if there is some, let the person tactfully know that the problem is in fact unsolvable if not, spitball ideas that may or may not work, there’s really room for a lot of stuff you could say that one would appreciate, even if ultimately it wouldn’t solve the problem.
Instead, you either assumed I’m too stupid realize using an OS that supports WebSockets would solve the issue of WebSockets not being supported by my OS, in which case what you wrote was patronizing condescension. Or your mental state at the writing of your message was in “let’s keep everything up to date” snobbery mode which would mean I just got chastized. Either way, I don’t feel like your answer came from a place of genuine desire to help.
If this feels a little too harsh, sorry, honestly, I’m proud it didn’t devolve into an obscenity filled all caps rant.
