I mean you have a 81:9 up/down ratio on your original post at the moment and almost only good comments.
Don’t get pulled down by the negative ones, as there will always be negative people posting bad and mean stuff.
Edit: What also doesnt help is that almost half of your comments on other peoples answers is you judging the community and their answers. Its like you still see yourself as an outsider, rating the friendlyness of the people.
It’s always funny to me when people make posts advocating for moderation polices in a way that would straight up get them banned due to those policies.
Don’t answer the comments you find frustrating, as this will not lead to a fruitful discussion.
In a hobby such as this there will be a lot of passionate people, some of them have invested countless hours into their own optimal layout. So the answers will be personal opinions. And if ones opinion is “I recommend against this layout, its better to change your typing habits” then this “judging” is more like a opinionated recommendation.
I dont know if this is a cultural thing, but this behaviour, up/down-ratio, even the type of comments are pretty normal (and for me expected) for a niche community like custom/ergo-mech KBs.
You trying to school everyone makes you look like a dick, thats what the one commenter meant by getting banned because being rude.
Tldr: Be open to other opinions, pick the persons you want to talk to, don’t try to school a whole community as it appears arrogant and ignorant.

I don’t understand? I am judging the community for not wanting to be judged? Am I missing something
Just because there are lots of upvotes doesn’t mean the responders are kind.
I can’t believe how many people were giving me crap for the layout I wanted. On a custom keyboard focused community.
I acknowledge the kind posters. Most interactions were frustrating.

What?
Like people who complain about rude people when they’re the most rude person there.
