The "you" was meant to be a more general you, rather than you specifically, although my point is the same. Launching a social media site is a herculean task, and requires the effort (or funding) to match. Its up to those trying to establish the platform to put in the effort, not the ones we're trying to "sell" to, and insulting or blaming them just makes us look like assholes.

insulting or blaming them just makes us look like assholes.

On the other hand, sharing the frustration on spaces like here can help people who feel demotivated.

As you said, launching a new platform is a herculean task, and there are only so many of us (around 4 or 5 people) trying to promote the platform.

Finally, the person quoted here is probably never going see this post.
