Seems Like Hdr Photographers are hated in the photography

hey guys new to this sub. anyways for context i am getting back to photography after like 7ish years of not doing it . an my style is hdr and an digital manipulation. so i post a hdr photo in another sub an i got so much hate for the hdr and i did some research an a lot of ppl it seems don't like hdr or anything tone mapping like. if feels like we back in the film days when film photographers were tell ppl who use digital camera not real photographers. it's like hdr/tone mapping artist get as much hate as ppl who use ai. like did something happen for it to be like this? it kind of sucks tbh. i was really happy and proud about my photo an so many ppl were just aholes and trashing it. i am still going do what i love just sucks its this way.
