I would argue it was worse in ARR and got better over time, especially after the rules were changed to remove loopholes so now just vaguely "being rude" can be reported.
I can't argue with you, I have played FF14 for a long time but mostly I play at the beginning of an expansion, level up to max level on the few classes I enjoy and only keep up with the story. I mostly was a solo player for the story. It wasn't until Shadowbringers that I really sat and played socially and tried to do content. That being said, in all my time leveling up and doing dungeons since 2016 I rarely ever had an experience or heard of experiences like this. Since the game blew up it's been far more regular. And most of the players that came to FF14 from what I understand were from WoW (Based on information I've seen posted on forums, from my experience ALSO playing WoW, and watching streamers and their chat talk about their experiences moving from WoW).

That being said, LoL players are Toxic AF. I played that game, and it was always people telling me I should get cancer lol. If they went from LoL -> FFXIV I can definitely see them acting like this.
