Difficulty of normal content.

I think this is a great argument as to why Square Enix needs to consider new content that is below max level. Limiting multiplayer content to those that have already been playing for hundreds of hours is incredibly limiting for an MMO. The entire game before level 100 is single player. In a subscription MMO. And yet, you must do it, you must not skip, otherwise you are a bad player (per the posters here). You can not learn in level 100 content, you must already be good. Otherwise you need to unsubscribe (per the posters here). FFXIV will stop growing and your game will die out or become an elitist c-jerk like WoW Classic.

We don't want you to already be good. We want you to learn how to fall and pick yourself back up rather than cry about it and make it so nobody gets to go out in the rain anymore when people actually don't mind.

And we also want a game that survives another few years without being turned into maintenance mode. We don't want FFXIV to be a stagnating ditch of level 100 players who've been playing for 10+ years. We don't want FFXIV to turn into a c-jerk like WoW. We'd rather FFXIV be more accommodating to new players, even if it means we're not allowed to dig up parses and harass people online. We think the TOS should be respected rather than e-celebs and 4chan brigading the forums just because of one person with a bad opinion.

(The difficulty of the raid here is irrelevant because we can all agree that it wasn't that hard)

Time to get a grip on reality. The difficulty of these dungeons and normal raids and trials is not even close to this point. Stop being the first to bring up streamers and blaming them for the opinions you're seeing here today. Not everyone is a sheep.

Exactly this
