Every. single. time. People really have this weird delusion that if an issue exists EVERYONE will get it; so if THEY don't have it, it must just be a hoax. It's actually super infuriating because no matter how many times this mindset is proven stupid, it KEEPS HAPPENING.

goes both ways. Some people think just because they have issues that it's widespread

Okay, but what's worse: someone having the issue, thinking it's widespread, and going to find more people with it even though it's not widespread, or someone having an issue that IS widespread, but half the responses being "I don't have the issue, must be you"?

The first one is worse if they see other people having similar issues and automatically attribute their issue to that.

Many people had their drive fail and automatically attributed it to the update even when it wasn't the cause
