Steam Workshop and Nexus

So I saw this cool mod on Nexus, recently uploaded. Tried it, liked it, but as I try not to use mods from there (for few reasons), I was wondering if there is a chance to release it on SW. I quickly wrote a msg, to the person who made it. Decided not to ask questions/requests on the comment page, as some people on Nexus love to award such things with "-" reputation for no good reasons.
I didn't have to wait long to recive an answer and to be honest, I wasn't really surprised it was a "no". What hit me, was the fact that the author said it's Nexus exclusive because "that" community is much nicer.

I felt offended. Am I a part of a worse community?

Everybody has their opinions. For example, why are you on these forums rather than a fan-made one? Most likely because you prefer these ones.
Personally, I prefer the Nexus to any other mod site, simply because I feel I can trust it. That said, this is all based on Oblivion mods, since I own Skyrim on console. Although I doubt there's much difference between the Skyrim and Oblivion nexus sites.

steam is the devils work and only devils work with steam...its evil and must be stopped before its too late
