A frequently overlooked issue about Gen-X online culture is that it was always have on gatekeeping, snobbism and hierarchy.
It is not surprising that newer generations don't know it, because at this time, people did the most to keep things on their small clubs of initiated folks, newbies NOT welcome.
Frankly, millenials and zoomer have a far more open and welcoming approach, and probably their culture will survive better because of that.
