Nerdy communities always seem to attract some very opinionated people, which is a turn off for people just trying to do better.
I will go one step further and say 1. most strong opinions are not based on deep knowledge, and 2. a lot of this drama is legitimate mental illness… a niche of a niche that by design is run by extremely paranoid people, often aren’t all there in the head, or you could say they have simply crossed over the fine line of genius.
As an older hobbyist, exactly.
I’m as guilty as anyone, but I promise I’m trying to be better.
