I am getting really tired of that word 'Just" in these kinds of rants. For a huge amount of people, there's no such thing as "just switch", because in a lot of cases these people are considered "just"...

I do feel I need to nuance that this isn't aimed at "just" anyone (yeah, yeah, I'll cut out the just thing). The underlying thought is true though: People, particularly a subset of the #fedi, are VERY quik to tell people to "just XYZ". #accessibility aside this is almost never a "just" to the person you're talking to, and the person in question is going to get their feathers ruffled by you indicating what they may have actually already tried to do, for days, is a "just" to you. Feel the urge to tell someone to "just" do something? Stop, think, and maybe just don't. ALl you gotta do is just think from somebody else's perspective for a change. nNothin' to it, right?
