What’s going on here that everyone has bad things to say ?
Asking for a friend
I've seen/heard most of the other regionals (and mainline carriers, for that matter) do the same things that SKW gets poked about for probably many of the same reasons: operational concerns, performance limitations, ATC restrictions, etc.
It's easy to explain. As a species, humans tend to judge others by their actions but themselves by their intentions (and not actions). We give ourselves the benefit of the doubt or supply explanations that self-rationalize our own behavior but don't do any of that for anyone else and make judgements based solely on what we observe.
