You know you don't need to follow hold their CoC in any way to use the language right?

Do you only use languages that you can contribute to their codebase?

"Contribute to their codebase" includes bug reports and seeking help with errata and other issues.

It might be problematic to use a language where needed help could be preceded by Twitter or HN background and allegiance check.

That is exceedingly rare. The vast majority of times you will either find your answer online to work your way around issues.

I would remind you that we have LLMs now. One of the greatest gifts of LLMs is not having to rely on talking to people online to figure out issues when using a language/framework/library.

		Both searching for answers online and consulting LLM’s depends on prior human works or interactions, and (from what I know) their feasibility scales with the language’s popularity. I should expect both approaches to work much more reliably for Perl or Python than they would for Gleam or Newlisp.
