The absolute worst trend in writing is the now standard “thank you to xyz for reading drafts” It’s a thinly veiled status arb opposed to letting the writing stand on its own There is no reason to publicly thank a friend for spending 15 minutes marking up your draft. This type of thing is baked into friendship

Completely disagree because it helps get people who support you more distribution but appreciate you sharing aggressive takes 🫡

This is actually the issue. Why can’t people just do someone a favor instead of angling for distribution Genuine friends and colleagues > status games
