Stop with the emojis. It looks very childish and unprofessional. Emojis don’t add any value to a tutorial, they are just a distraction for the reader.

@harrybawsac I think they are adding value. No one is forcing you to read this article anyway.

Your colleagues must be very happy with you on your team.

β€œCould you please not do that in the future?”
β€œF*ck you, no one is forcing you to work with me!”

Yeah, you’re going to be a great person to work with, Dominik.

My point is: don’t twist things around. I actually WANT to read the article for the information in it. I want the information in my brain. Don’t you get that?

Hey y'all!

I'm a Community Manager at DEV and just wanted to remind everybody to keep it friendly here.

It's fine that Harry doesn't like emojis β€” the way that criticism was voiced focused on the writing itself and is constructive, without being too insulting. That said, I would personally recommend balancing the bluntness of that statement with some sort of positive feedback too β€” to me, it does come off as a bit rude.

It's also fine for Dominik to counter that opinion and let us know that they approve of the emojis. However, I don't think the right answer is to suggest to Harry that they don't have to comment.

And on the flip, from this one interaction, I definitely don't think we should assume and suggest that Dominik is dropping f-bombs to their colleagues.

Anyway, just please keep kindness at the forefront. If you disagree on things or offer criticism, it's totally fine, but just try to do so empathetically!
