You sound odd, like a child or someone not fluent if you don’t use our misuse the genders of words.
That being said, as native Spanish that lived in the UK for a while, I noticed that genders and verb forms are useful for providing more context when talking.
Cannot think of specific examples now, but in general in a phrase if you don’t hear a word or don’t know the meaning, it is easier to guess it because the rest of the phrase is constructed around the gender and more complex verbal forms.

I’d bet it’s missing sunlight, those things thrive in direct sun. Second guess is that it’s overwatered… does that pot drain well the water? it should definitely not be sitting in water and I would now water it very often. It can be a mix of both things

yep, people blinded by rage invest more time to flood places with their message. Sometimes with bots or multi accounts, which… well, speaks for itself how sad it is.
And also that making up facts for discussion takes less time to do than a proper argumentation

probably you’re overwatering, which is the sure way to kill aloes.
Get a pothos instead and it’ll thrive
