Most users of Windows aren't editing the registry, no matter what problems they encounter.
For power users that do use regedit, I'd argue there's still a gap between that and using a shell. The registry can be edited entirely with the Windows graphical utility, after all.
I mean realistically, the people who enjoyed it back in the day have outgrown it. So "new" content like this skibidi business, which is the same kind of humor as they used to enjoy 10+ years ago, is deeply unappealing.

I generally agree that it's not necessary to bring unrelated problems into a space.
But this post reads like "this software is good but the community is not welcoming, I don't recommend getting into either". I think that's valid.
Check out this comment above for why it made such a huge difference.
