This was a great response! Thank you. I ended up bumping into Alex (serendipity) and we spoke in person. Turns out their team is swamped with work. I personally believe it is still polite to respond and say that is the case and you'll get back to someone when you can, but everyone has different ways of doing things and I'm not perfect at email either.
Glad you liked it! After I posted, I was worried I'd responded with problem-solving talk when really you just needed to vent for a sec and were totally on top of it. :P
sorry, but if one has to respond an useless "ok" line to every email one gets, one should rather hire a secretary or give up even trying to think about what they're doing. is anyone here actually in charge of something important? bc if you are you simply have no time or room in your brain for this!
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse

Glad things are working out!
Even if I'm totally swamped, I try to respond with something so the person knows I'm not ignoring or avoiding them.
