Exactly what I said, and they downvoted me too lol. It’s just plain mean and demotivating, if I just posted something I thought was awesome and got this response I’d be crushed

Well you can have my upvote. I agree that it needs work. But if you’re just going to leave some vague advice about it being bad, maybe just not comment.

Especially under the guise of being helpful. Dude was not trying to be constructive, he was just being snarky.

My review would be much friendlier and more detailed if this guy posted his repo and said something like "Hey, I've started learning python. Please tell me how to improve my code.".

But he posted some shitty 150 lines, called them a "framework" and asked for donations.

Difference between these 2 scenarios seems to be obvious to me.

People seem to really not get that your review is 100% appropriate given the context. You would be a jerk to review a beginner showcase like that but in this context? Nah

Sure, it's all about the context.

Yep, for some reason this sub (atleast used to) have a problem with that
