this comment is a masterclass in advertising

start relatable: “my experience” add reinforcing detail: works well with fx2 hw add negative experience: bad for analog logic introduce habit trigger: next time use ngscopeclient for analog logic

I'm a bit confused, is the implication that they're shilling for ngscopeclient or something? It's not a paid product (neither is sigrok). They're not wrong either, Pulseview (sigrok) is great doesn't feel very designed for interactive use from the little bit I played with it.
Either way it is great marketing. Maybe they just have a knack for it!
Maybe they just use LLM to proof their comments. You too can sound like dismissible ad copy with this one simple trick!
I didn't use an LLM, but on rereading in the morning, I am cringing at "wasn't so interactive", so maybe I should have. There had to be a better way to put my complaint.
It's fine, we will all be suspected of being LLMs now. :)
