As someone who used to read /r/bitcoin daily for years, I can confirm this. Economic and business considerations are often disregarded, for example the concept of a "window of opportunity" that one can miss when moving too slowly. But what alienated me most from the Bitcoin-community is how the two most important forums do not value freedom of speech. For example, I've been permanently banned from bitcointalk.org for saying "Thank you Alex! I couldn't agree more."

[slice_of_life]

The BTC reddit community is the worst! I no longer go there for any BTC related conversations. Zero decorum, literal insults and intolerance towards on-boarders are some of the reasons I'm personally disgruntled.
