@kissane A lot of these are similar criticisms I've had of Mastodon in my time here too. A lot of the "I got yelled at" and "posting feels like walking on eggshells" responses felt especially familiar. I've fortunately found my niche now, but I hope people start to realize how unwelcoming this site can be for newbies. I appreciate you taking the time to gather all this data; hopefully it helps make this site a friendlier place.
