| Dec 7, 2022 at 1:48 | comment | added | NotTheDr01ds | @Ramhound If 5 community members deem it unsalvageable before 1 community member is kind enough to help out an ESL new contributor, then so be it. But mod-closing short-circuits the community process. It should be reserved for truly garbage posts. This wasn't. | |

What shouldn’t happen, is a question with poor grammar, be reopened without being edited. A question with grammatical mistakes should be closed so it can be improved in my opinion | |
| Dec 6, 2022 at 12:50 | comment | added | NotTheDr01ds | @JourneymanGeek It's likely somewhat related to one of these two questions, with a touch of another underlying issue as well. The second one of those (which almost got closed as a duplicate) was pretty tough to figure out, but I happened almost by chance to end up reproducing the issue. | |
| Dec 6, 2022 at 12:46 | comment | added | NotTheDr01ds | @JourneymanGeek Most people wouldn't, I agree, but someone with experience in the nuances of Windows Terminal and WSL should. It's not an easy question, regardless, but IMHO that makes it an even better one (once cleaned up). I'll work on cleaning up the grammar on it, which should make it more clear even to a non-SME. I don't have the answer yet, but I do have some suspicions on what's going wrong. | |
