If it felt like a waste of time and energy to post something substantive, rather than the GP comment (https://www.hackerneue.com/item?id=44998577), then you should have just posted nothing. That comment was obviously neither substantive nor thoughtful. This is hardly a borderline call!
We want substantive, thoughtful comments from people who do have the time and energy to contribute them.
Btw, to avoid a misunderstanding that sometimes shows up: it's fine for comments to be critical; that is, it's possible to be substantive, thoughtful, and critical all at the same time. For example, I skimmed through your account's most recent comments and saw several of that kind, e.g. https://www.hackerneue.com/item?id=44299479 and
https://www.hackerneue.com/item?id=42882357. If your GP comment had been like that, it would have been fine; you don't have to like Claude Code (or whatever the $thing is).
