You got downvoted but then I read some and you're not wrong.

I think we should call out bad writing assuming English is their first language. Bad, lazy writing, doesn't respect the audience.

First sentence under the heading "Good Ole Projects". This is not a sentence.

edit: The charitable pov is that writing is very hard work and writing and publishing anything is a net good. I wish for more people to respect how hard writing is and also to take the time to write well! So that's why that sentence bothered me.

Author here, not my intent! My deepest apologies. English is my first language but people do joke that they say I write English like I learned it as a second language.

I have fixed the sentence fragment and connected the two thoughts together. Thank you for keeping me honest.

I just edited my comment! I do not wish to convey negative energy toward something you made. I felt bad about it.

Also, I do care about writing, so thank you!
