I haven't modded ever before up until quite recently, but I still know nothing of the 'communities', because I don't use Discord, Reddit, etc. Feel free to share cool stories. I've read through the modder cringe thread but it was about BG3 modding.
Aye, you can see most of what sucks about these communities with how things get handled with BG3, if you've read what most people think of the mod our pals here host, then you've heard it all.
Here's a pic of how people react to a person asking about realms restored:

Just for a question you're already targeted, made fun of and denied of any kindness, poor fella... Hope he made his way here. This is the way most behave, now back to TES:
It's pretty common for TES communities to be full of weird people, really weird people, a good example are furries who always play Khajiit/Argonian and do so some crazy stuff. With games this notorious it's just normal it eventually attracts disgusting, if at least questionable, personalities. What lies ahead is partially unrelated to this case, but are some examples of **** within the community:
TES modding can sometimes be really cool with people helping each other to make some really good stuff, or the lowest of the lowest you can see a person do for literally nothing, people who believe they are worth more than they really are pulling their mods out just because someone complained, massively entitled fucks.
Not sure if you remember but there used to be paid mods in Steam, back in like 2014 or 2015, many modders completely removed their mods from Nexus or other websites (back then not everything about modding was centered on Nexus) so people would pay for them in Steam. Really bad.
Also Most follower mods are cringe, like I'm serious every ******* follower I can install for my game is either gay or a 15 year old (actually a 30 yo with that mindset) self insert it's kinda weird.
There's too the constant fight for permissions in what assets you can and can't use for a mod (for some reason), mods have been deleted for this reason. And there's the Unofficial Patch... yeah, that's a long story. Also the fact that for some weird ****** up reason many modders HATE TO DEATH to have their mods featured in a modpack, I don't know why but they just... they hate everything about someone else touching their stuff... ******* weirdos.
A bit more related to what's being talked about, I remember this popular modder back in the times of LE (He eventually left shortly after special edition came) who used to put in all his mods constant LGBT pride stuff, no big deal with that, but his mods were pretty cool stuff that for some weird ******* reason had gay stuff in it. Go figure but it's said he eventually left simply because he couldn't take the amount of people criticizing him, it's a common thing to happen.
I've forgotten most names and controversies to be honest so I can't say much more, but don't think I can forget about Arthmoor (the unofficial patch guy). That guy is an embarrasment, an active detractor of everything that freedom and mods stand for... damned scum.
Morrowind modding used to be a bit like that some pretty ******* long years ago, but it has turned into a relaxing place to be around with many modders supporting each other and pulling out some really good mods. Who knows, maybe the annoying people just left, maybe they matured... either way, it's a more healthy community than what Skyrim is.
Anyway, funny pic to chill out:

Qyranians originate form the namesake desert continent, which is said to be both barren and inhospitable. At the same time it is also known as cradle of science, mysticism and culture. While many foreign countries admire Qyra for its advanced culture, they are often deemed as heretical and immoral – especially on religious continents like Enderal.
I don't like when people do a religion≠science in fantasy, it's stupid because both things can coexists and support each other perfectly. Hope is not the case with Enderal, but this sounds bad, pretty bad.

That was in the vanilla game.
