“I'm not interested in engaging with bad faith gotcha-style communication like this.”

It’s not that, it’s an effort to get you to drop into system 2 and think about all the steps it probably took to put this together.

“Beside that, you do realize that this is merely an ad for that GIS provider consultancy thingy that can sell you actual swiss maps, right?”

Yes, I do. I’m not buying their product, selling it or in any way interested in it. I’m just pointing out that your dismissive comment about someone else’s work sucks.

“I mean judging by your career in adtech. Uh Yeah anyway.”

Case-in-point. Stay classy!

Edit: as I’m reading other replies in this thread, I’m finding that I had no idea how sophisticated tools for Minecraft are.

This could’ve been an opportunity to teach someone something cool like your sibling post did, but you opted to be a jerk instead.

Maybe take a sec to examine that.

I have taken the sec and concluded - just like before it - that teaching is effort and energy is finite.

If bad behavior is validated by more good faith teaching, then we consequently just see more bad behavior in the future.

If you're genuinely interested in positive exchange, don't kneejerk gotcha people. Or, if you're not, don't complain like this.
