I'm a Julia user who has also given up as a Julia community member. The bubble is real. I found too often when I wanted to do something outside of that bubble and asked for help, I got unhelpful advice which amounted to "why do you want do something outside of our bubble?"

Can you give some examples?
One example. Not a very important one, but illustrative.

The "bubble effect" here was assumption that everyone has internet access and dependencies to external ( community maintained ) packages are zero cost.

Happily 2 years later this was resolved to my satisfaction.
