Shoutout to the dub watchers who actually pay attention to subs

I used to think dub fans were just lazy or multitasking while watching. Then last week I caught a clip of someone pointing out a line change in episode 7 of Frieren, where the dub said something totally different from the sub but actually fit the character better. It made me realize I was the one being close minded. I started checking both versions side by side for a few shows and honestly the translation choices are way more interesting than I gave them credit for. The dub writers are making real calls about tone and intent, not just swapping words. Now I actually read the sub comments too and I see people catching stuff I missed entirely. Has anyone else flipped their opinion on a whole community like this?
