What is it with Redditors having to feel like they're the smartest in the room at all times? - eviltoast

Randomly made a little post on Reddit that cloned one I made on lemmy, and it really showed the difference in user. I brought a screen protector and mentioned it didn’t have glue and got a comment from each platform regarding the same issue that really made me realise the difference in communities and how tired I’ve become of the whole “well ackually” mentality of Reddit.

Lemmy comment, just asking a question and provides a solution trying to help: “Is it perhaps static cling, or do you have to apply with a water/soap solution?”

Reddit comment just randomly guessing and making out I’m a moron who doesn’t know how screen protectors work despite me saying in the description I’d done so, got 14 upvotes on a 20 upvoted post, so this is basically the vibe of that sub I guess.

"I’m inclined to believe that you didn’t peel the right side. "

This is my rant for the evening, think I’ll go back to not bothering with Reddit any more, maybe I am stupid :D.

    I usually chalked it up to immaturity, an inferiority complex, and/or anger at the world. All toxic and useless.
