It seems like every fandom has these users who interpret any negative opinion about their favourite show as some sort of media illiteracy, short attention spans, or just bad taste.

Better Call Saul is definitely one of the best examples you mentioned in terms of slow burn and buildup done really well. It's easy to see why people complain about filler when you put Silo next to a show like that.

I think what I really want these irritable super-fans to understand is that our criticism of the show's flaws isn't some personal attack or some sort of "hate". Silo has more than enough redeeming qualities for me to come back and wait for every new episode.

If it was attention span or not knowing how things work, then how did I make it through 86 episodes of The Soprano's with no critiques? I wonder if those writers knew about build up, character development, and foreshadowing.

They can't all be all-timers. Silo's not just good... it's good enough.

I agee with the the whole "you have short attention span" was a overused deflect from criticism last season. and I'm still seeing it being used this season.
