> I can barely get the regular people in my life to nice anything above 30 hz or turning off motion smoothing. I really don't see how any of this stuff matters for most people

"I don't have an issue with it, so most people also don't have an issue with it"

False Consensus Effect (or false consensus fallacy):

It happens when someone overestimates how much other people agree with them, assuming that their own personal beliefs, values, or experiences are the default for everyone else.



But in this case, most people really truly don't have an issue with it.

It's a very small minority who cares.


> It's a very small minority who cares.

Cite your sources, please or you're just echoing "trust me, bro".


You can’t prove your inverse take tho.


Reading comprehension is important. There was no inverse take here. Just pointing out anecdotal evidence isn't enough to draw a conclusion over a larger sample size.


Mmm nope, that trick doesn't work here today.

You want them to cite sources for something they can't possibly cite. I'm telling you that you are doing the same thing they are: confidently asserting that you're correct even though you cannot possibly prove that.

It is not a difficult concept.


> confidently asserting that you're correct

Where did you see this? The acoustics in your head must be wild:))

Source?


Most people don’t even know what a refresh rate is. They don’t know why it’s measured in hz. They certainly don’t know what 60 vs 120 means.


The comment wasn't saying "I don't have an issue with it." It said "regular people in my life." In fact, maybe the commenter is one of the few people who have an issue with it.
