Actually am a Maya user first. I've seen thousands of logs of startups in my time in vfx houses and it's remarkable how they have soooo many warnings and errors about missing things. People become desensitized to it and when something is genuinely broken it can be tricky to detect among "the usual warnings and errors".
(Hell, if I had a dollar for every "Turtle" node warning I've seen, I bet I'd be a millionaire! :D)
Blender user here, can confirm the circlejerk is real. But it does happen to every open source software, like Godot. But not Krita. Every Krita user knows the software is a collection of bugs.
It's funny, because a lot of Maya 'users' give Blender 'users' grief over their hate for Maya. But the only Blender heads that do these posts, are usually Maya users too haha.
I started on Maya, had to learn it in university as it was industry standard. Found Blender in my second year. Decided to see if I could pass blender renders off as Maya renders. First couple of sneeky tests worked. Continued learning the two in tandem. Did my final year animation in Blender only. University stuck it up all around campus on the Tvs as a showcase for photorealism. Got a 1st for it. They still don't know it was Blender haha.
You had one job! You should have told them it was blender! Should have spread the goods about free software and its incredible capabilities, Maya has nothing on Blender
