Edited to add space between the enumerated list. Hi HN, I was evaluating IDEs for a personal project and decided to test Trae, ByteDance's fork of VSCode. I immediately noticed some significant performance and privacy issues that I felt were worth sharing. I've written up a full analysis with screenshots, network logs, and data payloads in the linked post. Here are the key findings: 1. Extreme Resource Consumption: O…

Thanks for watching out for a fellow user!

By coincidence, I was just doing the same thing on the original comment. Since it's more or less identical now to what you posted, I'm going to move this subthread underneath https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44703481, where it will probably make more sense.

(Incidentally, mostly all we both did was add newlines, and it's on my list to see if I can get the software to do this automatically without screwing up other posts.)

I think we can cut the guy some slack for using machine translation given that English isn't his native language. I bet I sound a lot dumber than this when I'm renting servers in Hong Kong in Cantonese.

Like a lot of the threads where you come in on my comments with "actually let's be a dick about this, I'll start" the rest of the thread seems to agree that some bad formatting in no way undermines an important bit of signal, that some language barrier adjacent friction is a tithe of noise to pay for it, and that erring on the side of tolerance around non-native speakers trying to navigate an English -dominated forum and industry is the better move.

I don't know how I got on your shitlist shortlist (I'll assume you don't do this with everyone), but give it a rest.

I don't think the post you're replying to deserves what feels like an aggressive dressing-down. The reality is that post formatting on HN is really janky and it's hard to get it to do what you want. I don't blame someone for failing to master HN formatting on one of their first tries.

Promise to try better next time, its really first post ever i have made on here, sorry!

(I'm a mod on HN) - We're both happy and lucky to have you, and I hope you'll stick around!

Also, I hope getting to #1 on the front page with your first post led to more positive vibes than getting harangued led to negative ones :)

I wonder if its healthy to end up at aggressive dressing down is when we review peoples submitted work and point out the second half is LLM-generated 4 item lists.

Time for some self-reflection, I think.

You think so? Sounds a bit overwrought.
