I concur. I was used to a professional tone, then joined discord-go. Showed some of my online code to receive a "shit structure" response by some anime girl avatar youngling.
When I started explaining how I don't think docker is the way to go I was met with passive aggressive behavior and plain false responses trying to justify its use.
But Go's discord server wasn't to only bad experience. Angular might as well have been called Heil Angular. I worked with it for 2 years and found vue to be more productive. But they didn't want to hear cross worlds experience. Instead they insisted that I had no clue and after a while of back n forth played the "we're the moderators so we're right" card.
Then big daddy server owner later stepped up and in the end I was banned, because despite the truth that vue was more productive only their agenda mattered.
I have also met hostility in discord's vue server. Insults by by an official name there for saying that it wasn't a good move to require me or anyone joining to provide a phone number for account verification purposes.
All in all discord seem to have the immature unprofessional crowd. It's a gaming chat system after all.
Reddit Go is not as hostile but not very informed either. Although that's not true for all participants.
Compare Reddit to the quality of Go nuts, there is a difference.
But at least Reddit is a more or less open forum, where discord is hidden and a walled pff property.
You can't base your opinion on anything, particularly computer languages, off of your Discord experience, come on.
The Discord demographic is teenagers and young adults, that's the last place where you'd find professional and mature advice about a programming language. I mean, even Reddit is better, and it still is a cesspool.
I've found the rust discord nice and respectful (although I'm also a young adult). I also don't think [edit: PL] reddit is particularly a cesspool, at least compared to HN.
