Not matching your style (and vocabulary, and tone, and grammar, and basic word choices, and, and, and…) to your audience has always been bad communication.
WTF? Since when? Text is a quick message between two people. Now I’m expected to be a good enough writer to “match their style,” or I’m a bad person? Why don’t they have to match my style? Who chooses whose style to match? How many more questions do I have to ask before it’s perfectly clear that this was a really dumb take on texting?
Interesting, since I’ve made my living as a professional writer throughout my life, and still do ALL the copyrighting for my business, which is nearly 20 years old, with hundreds of clients, all of who responded to my written marketing and sales communications.
I’m a good enough writer to raise a family on a single income, but by all means continue to take writing advice from people who think 👁️♥️U is a full sentence.
Not trying to impress, just demonstrating that I’m good enough to survive by my writing, which is a lot more than nearly anybody arguing with me can say. That’s a stronger argument than “Nuh-uh.”
Goodbye children, I have shit to do. Go write the Emoji Dictionary.
You still think being a professional writer is a flex. It really isn’t. You’re probably lying about your experience. There’s a lot of us out here. Lemmy isn’t a secret club for CS majors.

Nope. Just a bad communicator.

Done with Dolts; Dusvedanya Dipshits!
Making a living as a professional writer isn’t as impressive as you’re trying to make it sound, but good for you if it makes you feel accomplished.

Not a flex, just demonstrates that I know the rules of proper writing. Strunk & White, motherfucker.
And accusing someone of lying, and thinking that wins your argument, is the last gasp of a loser.
Buh-bye.
