This kind of gatekeeping and elitism is bad for Lemmy and for FOSS.

It makes this community a less welcoming place and leaves new folks with a bad first impression. Much better to be welcoming and let people learn/see the benefits of FOSS at their own pace.

I don't understand how promoting FOSS in favor of proprietary software is bad for FOSS?

This is not promoting FOSS. This is mocking closed-source/paid Lemmy clients.
