"You've probably heard of Web3 unless you've been living under a rock.". This instantly insult all people who never heard about Web3. And, implies you're cheeky, ofc.
Every single point said here is to the best not accurate, otherwise it's false.
So as it said: "it's explained like I'm five".
Thank you for the comment!
First of all, if you have any points, arguments, or opinions against mine, I would love to hear them.
Secondly, "Living under a rock" is a metaphorical expression. According to Merriam-webster, it means to be unaware of things that most people know about. A metaphorical funny line is not offensive. And even if it has been offensive to you, I'm sorry.
Abhiraj Bhowmick Starting with such expression is offensive to any reader who has never heard of "Web3". It's ok for me, it's part my job, but in general this is not a good start for an article.
Olivier Pons Please don't misunderstand. If it is not offensive to you, that does not mean it is offensive to someone else. It is just a metaphorical expression that is supposed to be funny.
Olivier Pons Anyone who is offended by this is clearly far too fragile and delicate a creature to be roaming the internet without a chaperone in the first place.
This is either your fault for not ensuring you had a chaperone to ensure you stuck only to the cartoons and otrher kid-friendly content on the internet.
Either that, or your chaperone has done a terrible job and it's their fault for not protecting you from said content despite knowing your ego is made from dried, crumbly feta cheese.
M P You're mixing everything. After teaching more than 2000 people, I know that there are a lot of sensitive people. And a lot of persons can easily feel offended. What you said can easily lead to things like "Hey, bro, I can insult all the women. ". And when you go in court, you'll say: "I was just joking, this girl is too fragile and delicate and shouldn't go on Internet". People like you might find normal to cross the line (otherwise you wouldn't write what you have written).
Abhiraj was much more delicate in his answer and I hope that from now on he might take in consideration that sentences which might be negative for some persons should be avoided, especially at the beginning of an article, and especially if you say "you".
Maybe if the sentence was "Everybody has heard of Web3 except the persons living under a rock.", this might be better because it doesn't imply directly the reader.
Try to teach something to some people, and have more human interaction: it will radically change your point of view.
