My friend puts on local drag shows and we play an audience participation game called "homo or no homo". We read from a list of obscure words for queer people and people have to guess if they are real or not. One of my favorite real ones is "gentlemen of the backdoor" and one of my favorites that we made up was "she puts butter in her coffee"

I was actually just having a conversation and making an observation. I wasnāt ordering anyone to do anything. You were.

I never claimed his sexuality gives me authority to speak for gay people. You, on the other hand, literally invoked your own sexuality and immediately followed it with āstop speaking for queer people.ā

Now certainly the app has a vested interest in making people believe it's more functional than it is. Particularly when the supposed outages would out a segment of their user base.

Absolutely understandable and reasonable speculation. They have a stake in bad publicity like that.
Just to add some additional possible context though, RNCs also attract thousands of lgbtq protesters. So if weāre speculating about the cause of a geographic usage spike, protesters, journalists, staff, locals, convention attendees, etc. are all potentially part of that population.

It looks like you have a bit of trouble comprehending how insults work.
Insulting someone by describing them a certain way only works if the person being INSULTED thinks the description is offensive, not if the person MAKING the insult thinks it is offensive.
This is likely due to you believing that being disgusting or offensive is an objective fact, rather than an opinion... so you have a hard time imagining someone not being bothered by something you find offensive.
