I read the thread you shared as a PDF when it was on the forum and was pretty shocked by this reply from Jonah. “Just create a blog” really downplays the amount of work that goes into all aspects of blogging, and I agree it contradicts the whole point of a forum, so I found that quite dismissive coming from the person at the head of the forum.
It’s like calling a public town meeting and then telling a vocal participant to just go home and make a podcast if they have something to say that maybe doesn’t quite fit, is too lengthy or something that you don’t agree with.
