So. Yesterday. I made a post on /r/VintageApple. I talked about this yesterday. It caught the attention of the mods, and…they weren’t happy about this. After this reply, they deleted my post.

So yeah. Unsubscribed, not participating in that slice of the community anymore. Retro gatekeeping isn’t cool.

@xodium Gatekeeping is dumb.

Set a number, make it rolling, and all problems disappear.

Is retro 15 years for you? 20? Either way, Intel is there.

Graybeards are gonna graybeard though, and I'm glad even at my age of 42 I welcome all the young folks trying to relive their childhoods in the community.

@yestergearpc Yeeeep. Not sure why this is so hard.

I know a few young 'uns who started on intel and then made their way back to PowerPC and even 68k stuff. Hell, I think even dosdude1 is among that crowd if I recall correctly.

Telling these people that they're not welcome in the biggest retro Apple community of reddit? Oh, sod off.
