I don’t really see how Lerc’s comment would benefit from the critique sandwich (more commonly called the “shit sandwich”, in my experience).

Lerc was providing thoughtful suggestions for features to add. That’s not a criticism of what’s already in the project.




Based on my comment's negative score it would seem you're not alone.

I agree the feedback was thoughtful (as acknowledged in my reply) and read no ill-will in it and meant none myself

At risk of flogging a dead horse, it can be nerve wrecking to share things (or raise your first real PR, whatever) so I try to respond with that in mind - especially since text-only comms can come off as harsher than intended.


> Based on my comment's negative score it would seem you're not alone.

It's because you didn't finish it with a positive.


Argh, you're right - I made a bottomless sandwich, the least edible of all sandwichkind
