I am the "new user" mentioned in the bio post. Thanks a lot for bringing this up @Michelson_Morley.
@DarthCoin 's profile has many well-researched posts. He is undoubtedly a valuable resource for this community, and I am learning a lot from him. I try to focus on the content of someone's message, rather than the delivery. But I will admit that I felt annoyed and put off when I saw that as the first reply to my bio, and I wonder how many would have left there and then.
One last point. The 'nyms we choose have meaning. They signify what we value and what we aspire to be. Michelson and Morley were physicists who in their quest for the truth disproved the luminiferous aether and advanced mankind's understanding of physics. My own 'nym is Chinese for "to seek, to inquire, to interrogate". By adopting these nyms we profess our desire to seek the truth, and to have the courage to stand behind it.

Yes, M&M disproved the theory of a universe of aether. I was an ethereum programmer but lost faith in the structure of ethereum, thus my name :) Sorry for dragging you into drama, it's really very rare on this site.
I just don't appreciate local microcelebrities like @DarthCoin who are never wrong, and rarely have anything to say except "screw you, you're an idiot". Proud people, righteous, judgemental. Bullies, they bore me.
A rarity on the site, as I said. Enjoy your stay. Maybe I'll see you on nostr :)
