What really seals it is the 'angry' version, which is just the same message again but with different formatting. No human would label that as "the angry version" without the inclusion of at least one "fucking".

It says “but for fucks sake” in the angry version though.

Oh yeah, you're right, there is a swear in it! I do still feel it's extremely tame for being an "angry" voice though. For comparison, this is what a human sounds like when ranting about a topic they care about.

You can be angry and still be polite. On even insult othe without looking like you do. But subtilty isn't Lemmy forte.

I honestly think the styling is the main reason it feels AI.

because the sentences are too short, they're a style I sort of writes at times. Just sort of. LLMs tends to output longer sentences, rather than the two-three words. Then dot. That's a rare one for LLM

However it's not an anti AI site, so they might have vibe styled it and probably had a LLM help with some of the wording. However I think a human did vet and rewrite parts of it.
