fyi, I would consider this as a general statement to be the disrespectful attitude of an asshole, and I don't think I'm in the minority with that. Things people build don't have to be fantastic or free to deserve respect.
Even as a builder myself, I prefer to get unfiltered unabridged reactions from my users, emotions and all. I think it's more disrespectful when you tell someone they've built something good when you don't really mean it. It's a form of condescension and betrays that either you don't believe the person can do better, or you don't care to help them do better.
Truthful feedback is always a gift even if it hurts.
