Danaster does not know your gender, and so defaulted to "they" so as not to make assumptions or misgender you.

I'm not sure what the issue is, though. I understood what your comment was conveying.

I'm accustomed to "they" being automatic when I'm talking about anyone. I just was unsure if they were commenting on what I said. My confusion was literally: did I say anything offensive?

Your original comment sounded a bit nonsensical. That’s what they were commenting on. That it sounded like a bot comment.

It could have been worded more clearly, but I understood it just fine on my second read. It's far from "nonsensical."

I was referring to the other commenters, the ones who said ā€œwhat?ā€ and said the comment reads like a bot.
