Maybe you've had direct interactions with community members, but it is very unfair for you to characterize the Elm community as "unfriendly" based off of your reading of a few posts.

My actual experience has been exactly the opposite: I've interacted with many members of the community (at multiple Elm conferences, in the Slack, and even twice met members of the community for in-person meetings when they were visiting near my office). All of these interactions have been the entirely opposite of "unfriendly".

Of course the community is friendly: all dissent is ruthlessly crushed and removed. It feels very friendly and nice until you start to dissent, then it turns on you hard.

I posted an article saying I now recommended elm and was a part of the reason we chose it for our product. But I also said some things I disliked about elm.

So I was banned.

No warning.

Banned from where the discourse?
