"Ere, why isn't my SiteKit plugin working" "oh it's a terrible plugin (even though we have recommended it forever and have countless videos on how to set it), it's conflicting with something, then again, it's probably YOUR FAULT, you can't blame us" Me - "eerm, works perfectly well on 100,000,000,000 other websites with different hosting" "What's going on with the server?" "oh this happens from time-to-time, it's to be expected, but we have a team of technical experts and super advanced engineers dealing this, but then again, it's PROBABLY YOUR FAULT (it's never our fault)". Me - "Eeerm, this doesn't happen from time-to-time with other hosts, even the worst known hosting platforms online have better uptime, in fact, I would suggest that if your host has 3 occasions of excessive downtime within the space of 6 months you'll lose Google rankings for poor user experience, whereas your team of "techncal experts" and "super advanced engineers" appear to have had downtime THREE TIMES in the last TEN DAYS, how do you think Google is going to respond to that??????????" "Hooray, for ShiteSupport (ooops, incorrect spelling there... or WAS IT????????) they fixed all the issues and have us up and running again" Me - "eeerm, they caused the problem through poor service, poor hosting, and a lack of technical know-how, and you're THANKING them for sorting things out... once more, this is the equivalent of someone smashing you in the face with a baseball bat and then calling you an ambulance, and then you stating that the person who smased you in the face with a baseball bat is "the best human being in the world, so fantastic, couldn't live without them", JUST because they rang you an ambulance (eeerrm, you WOULDN'T HAVE NEEDED AN AMBULANCE if they hadn't smashed you in the face with a baseball bat in the first place") AND NO, this is NOT a public-service announcement or a subtle marketing ploy, you host where you like, I don't care, 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 just thinking about the word "programming" that was used here on the platform the other day... YES!!! I know I should stop, but I can't help it, there's just so much more NEW ammunition on a daily basis!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
