“Dude, suckin’ at something is the first step to being sorta good at something.”
“The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried.”
And when someone new to a thing shows up in your community for that particular thing, welcome and guide them.
Everyone was a newbie at one point, even people with natural affinity and extraordinary talent. It never pays off to gatekeep your community, it will die and so will the interest of it. Be welcoming. A great teacher can explain really complex stuff in really simple terms. Stay kind.

It’s been thrown around the furry subreddits before, i can confirm
I’m really feeling this right now, having almost succeeded at something that I eventually failed. Thanks for this. ❤️

Triple funny that this can be a “then let them eat cake” joke where they’re giving worse than useless advice from an irrelevant perspective.
