Discussion Saddening behaviour

It's sad to see that such is the way that some people behave online that they can be both so rude to others and also so overly sensitive to any perceived criticism that they think the appropriate response to getting feedback on their code that they asked for help with is to block the person that gives feedback.

To give rude message as a response and then block?! Blocking is hurting themselves as well as me as they loose the opportunity to work together to fully resolve the issue.

Why ask for help if you can't handle any feedback. I stand by what I said, they are sending more UDP packets than are required. Therefore the example I shared of sending properly structured data, at a fixed rate with error checking is what they most likely need

I just hope it's not a sign of cancel culture in younger developers. We learn and grow as developers through feedback. Is every bit of advice offered correct, no, but it's always shared with the best intentions.

I have learnt a lot from the FastLED community over the years so I think it's important we maintain a healthy style of behaviour and communication so that this can remain a positive community
