This is the truth. Do people not have friends that mainly use mainstream services or are people just elitist about open source? This just sucks, because this kind of toxicity really drives normal users away from open source when more people should be driven to it.
For us it's about a community where we take care of our users and provide a environment to foster interesting and respectful conversation. Software is just a means to a end.
