While I agree with you that some people are too thin skinned to handle some conversation online... Steam forums or YouTube comment sections are really the very worst of the worst.

If all you read is trash tier content on a platform even if you understand it, it still sucks and remain quite infuriating.

Basically, steam forums are mostly trolling so at this point it's not about the sensitivity of people but rather that these platform are particularly bad.
