Is the dev community too toxic toward aspiring developers?

I was just having a discussion with some fellow devs about the toxicity levels aspiring or junior developers face as they try to break into the industry.

While there is an insane amount of information readily available to become self-taught, people within the community often gatekeep, unduly criticize or by pure ego, are toxic toward those trying to learn.

I personally feel that there are reasons on both sides for the toxicity:

- An unknown unknowns problem that creates false confidence in junior devs that grate more established developers.

- A dev marketing ecosystem that rewards learning frameworks and not languages.

- Dev tooling that obfuscates in the name of developer friendliness/onboarding.

I'm sure there are others but just curious as to everyone's take.
