Leaving pointless answers/reviews on websites - eviltoast

I’m not sure if this is just me, but it drives me nuts when I see someone answer a question (for example in the questions section on an amazon product page) to just say that they don’t know or they give an unrelated answer.

For example:

Q: Do these headphones support bluetooth and wired connections?

A: I’m not sure, but my grandson loves these!

The same goes for posts which ask a question on other sites or reviews complaining about a product, despite it doing exactly as advertised. Idk, maybe I should have posted this on unpopular opinion.

    At least with that example, the products are related. Amazon lets sellers replace listings with completely different items - new name, picture, and description. So you’ll find a scam 64GB USB drive that’s pretending to be 1TB with hundreds of positive reviews, but when you read those reviews, you realize they’re for the plastic fidget toy that shared the item number previously.
