My first response to that it you need to take responsibility for your words. Your words are insulting. And many could be expressed in none insulting ways. Or not at all. There is no way that the bit I quoted above was not deliberate and it is insulting to anyone who has chosen to use Kobo and Kindle devices.

And yes, I will take responsibility for anything I say here or elsewhere. Here, I have the luxury of time that I can type something out and rewrite it to express myself better. And if something slips through, I will apologise. Though occasionally, I have asked for an explanation of the problem. Or a suggestion for how to word it better in the future.

My second response is that you are not always making general statements.

No, you have not accused anyone by name. But, you have expressed your opinion in ways that it is obvious who you are talking to. And your attitude is clear.
