The CentOS project just tweeted an announcement :
We're updating the @CentOSProject visual identity. https://t.co/yWZkudvgru pic.twitter.com/2JGH0HzLg4

The feedback was mostly positive, but two negative responses caught my eye.
The first:
Feedback is specific and seems to indicate actual expertise.
The next:
Feedback is useless, and incorporates a personal attack (designer should be fired) which is just rude.
I’m left wondering if this person thought that this was in any way helpful or that this is in any way an appropriate way to engage with a stranger. Would they talk with a human in person like this? Do they have any friends?
And even without the rudeness, the response is completely worthless and unactionable. So, one deeply unpleasant person didn’t like it, while 100 others did. Why should I care?
I also wonder if there is a way to respond to this person without returning their vitriol.
