Everywhere... Discord, Reddit & Cloudynights. It seems to be a community that has major GAS (gear acquisition syndrome) and everyone is rushing to one up each other and certain people in the community just get away with dominating the discussions and being assholes.

The people that are good at it and help the community seem to go through massive burnout too, love some of the youtubers but there are times they disappear to get away from it all.

I was not expecting it to be competitive.. was not expecting to find you only made friends if you spent a lot of time and money on something.. it's kind of "suffer with us and you may be accepted"...

they use racist frogs and memes for everything... can't tell what is real and what isn't... most people seem anti-social - makes sense, i am too - but not to the degree as some..

it was just a lousy community compared to in real life astronomy clubs where no one cared if you came with a plastic telescope.

If i was 30 years younger, there were some discords with kids that were fun... i got a laugh out of them - but fun in the sense of lol i can't believe you just said that to him not fun as in "this will be enjoyment"
