I've only ever found the Linux community helpful. I'm not saying there aren't dicks out there (I saw the one in this thread even) but for the most part people are more than willing to help out.
Oh they're out there. Usually the neckbeards who treat new users like they're stupid if they can't do a bash script right off the bat.
I chalk it up to idiots that recommend Arch to new users, then they're so confused they ask questions that most Arch users would think are silly, then everyone gets pissed off.
Yes.

1000% they are out there. Thank fucking Satan they don’t dominate certain spaces the way they used to! I always kept a lot of tech at arm’s length because I wasn’t capable of having a knock down drag out fight every time I formed even the mildest of opinion on a feature or something.
I’m sorry to put this so bluntly, but technical people are some of the dumbest human beings on planet earth.
