This elitism is a big part of why younger users* such as myself have never gotten much use/utility from IRC and hence exacerbates its growing irrelevance compared to alternative tools.

*Think XMPP GTalk etc. which were IMO superior in many ways to Slack or MS Teams

I'm not trying to be elitist, but if someone won't put a little effort into joining a conversation how will they ask questions or report issues?
