Ugh, I feel like your comment is almost depressing. So much negativity. As one of the recent new members, I feel like I should be super careful now what I submit to not eventually scrape off the flair of the veterans here and get scolded by them :/ I mean at one point you were new too, and what would you have thought upon reading such a comment by the veterans back then? Also, I was one of the bad guys who called hubski young, even though knowing it's been around for more than 6 months. Nowadays there are communities that are more than 10 years old, so of course hubski is still young. A year for a community is nothing, it's always about the perspective. Regarding restrictions for new users: It may solve an issue or two and maybe it should be tested. Personally, I wouldn't mind not being able to share links and only be able to comment, since that's what I like doing most anyway.
