The thing about walled gardens, is there terrible places to live. Inside the garden it's okay, but walking around the society filled with wall gardens, so hostile, there's no walking space, you feel like you're in prison
And then there's open communities, open lawns, open trees, a beautiful place to exist, a community you can interact with.

Those both look like a living hell to my rural ass
I get the context, but in case of neighborhoods (and internet communities) the quality of people residing is also important. I'd rather have quiet neighbors saying hello instead of some drug peddlers blasting loud music every night.
both look like a dystopian open air prison
Kinda like being an iPhone user
