I mean no offense, but your writing style gives the LLM vibe, this comment included. They all start with saying the user is right and thanking for their input, then wall of text, then a hook to incentivise further discussion. All well formatted and split into logical paragraphs. It is good and correct, but you may wish to not sound like chatbot

No offense taken—you're absolutely right.

In fact, I even added an em dash shortcut to my Logitech POP keyboard. That’s dedication. See? — — — — —

I’m not just writing like this—I’ve industrialized it.

If it sounds like a chatbot, maybe it's because I have spent too much time training them and not enough time pretending to be a chaos monkey in HN threads.

Appreciate the feedback though.

Now excuse me while I reboot into Windows just to add and to my custom shortcuts.

I have still got one more slot—what do you think I should add?

Go wild. Bonus points if it makes someone uninstall the gem out of pure emotional confusion.

Weird.

I'm not sure if I'm on HN or LinkedIn Lunatics now.

As someone else who appreciates em dashes—deploying them judiciously for many years, I too am plagued by people suddenly perceiving my natural writing style as suspect.

Same here, i used them for years.

Feel you.

This thread is getting a bit scary, are you okay?
