> - "Yes, yes you are" (reply to i'm not trying to be a hater) - No, I wasn't. I was making a critical comment, but I wasn't trying to be a hater. You cannot tell me what I was trying to do.
You weren't trying to be a hater. But you can try to not be a hater, and still end up as one.

More commentary like this:
> the responsiveness doesn't even work.
This was the only part of your comment that was worth while, or worded in a civil way. Rather than spew insults, be specific. As they say in writing, show, don't tell. It's poor to say it's an abomination. Rather, simply explain why.
> Stuff like "one good thing, one bad thing" or any type of sugar coating is not relevant.
It's not. And that method doesn't make civil criticism, regardless. After all: "Your font choice makes it easy to read, but what I'm reading is still an abomination" is rude and unhelpful.
The best criticism is specific then. Everything else is just opinion, and generally worthless. Opinions that merely insult are just hateful.

Hopefully this helps.
