Hacker News Reader

When you acknowledge that there is a problem in the system and have solved it by way of a third party application, why do you still place the blame on the user for not solving the problem the same way you did instead of the system for having holes in it

How does providing information have anything to do with placing blame?

> in my mind you have created a single point of failure for _yourself_

You are offloading decisions to the consumer, decisions that the consumer shouldn't have to take. They should be solved by systems design already.

"in my mind you have created a single point of failure for _yourself_."

You are blaming them in your first sentence. You're both blaming and informing, your message would come off much more friendly without the first sentence.

you can't expect most consumers to make these same decisions — the vast majority of people are nowhere near as savvy as the typical hacker news commenter.
