I know those guys are trying to be helpful, but to a newb they can feel like you’re not ready to even start your hobby

Don't let other people hold you back.

If you're trying to start a new hobby and you get put off by people giving you information because you think they're being condescending, learn to put aside the personal feelings so you can focus on the thing you wanted to focus on.

New information is useful regardless of how it was presented to you. You can't control how other people act, but you can control how you react to it. Learn to take the good and leave the bad.

There's such a thing as too much information, and it's not always relevant to a beginner.
