Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Assuming good faith needs to go all directions and we're asking for a little bit of empathy to vent some frustrations when we see them. Not everything we say is with an admin hat on. This is explicitly in the chat community, and it's specifically titled 'informal'. We don't desire to be stuffy and impersonal all the time because then you have no insight into who we are as people or the issues we go through.
Lots of toxic behavior in social media is people venting frustrations. So in that sense what you are doing is not that weird.
Now think about the community you say you want to foster here and the values you say you want uphold.
This should not be Reddit or Twitter, right? We expect better from people, right?
Please, think about the optics, reflect and do not double down, unless you are 100% sure this is the kind of criticism you are ok with having in Beehaw, because is what you are going to get.
