You are really great at just assuming things it seems. Not so great at plain old reading tho.

1. You have no idea what my problems were (because I never said so), yet you still assumed I am stupid — something that tells more about you than about me.

2. I never said I didn't manage to use it. I said I cannot recommend it to my friends yet. In fact I use Element daily, which makes me confident in the judgment I communicated here.

All in all you probably should form the habit of pausing for a moment before hitting the post button, let the emotions cool down and wonder whether you really understood the other person right or whether you fell victim to what you wanted to see.

Hey, I'd like to apologize for the tone that I took to your reply. I'm sorry. I hope I didn't cause you much grief.

No worries I am pretty stoic when it comes to such things, great to see you made the best of it. Gives me a little hope for humanity and it's experiment with the internet : )
