I spent a lot of time composing the feedback and figuring out how to deliver it in person such that it would land. In the end, my efforts were rewarded and I was able to work with them to change their ways.

Some of what my peer was trying to convey in the pull request comments had merit, but the phrasing they were choosing to use was beyond off-putting, and the nitpicking was off the charts.

They were having a large detrimental effect on the more junior devs whose PRs they were reviewing. The earlier career devs were having much stronger emotional responses to the tone of the comments. One cried.

Now, I've been doing this for awhile and I have a very high tolerance for this type of thing. One of the main reasons I needed to give the feedback was that they were in a senior position.

I once had to give feedback to a peer who was leaving brusque and dismissive comments on pull requests. The tone of the comments caused me to wince every time that I saw their username pop up in GitHub.

For the techies, there is some wonderfully detailed debugging going on in reddit about the problem:
