"Bayesian" mostly means you've seen and written an endless number of tutorials and introductory materials using a binomial-beta model. It's our version of: "what's a monad?"

Ive written an endless number of uniform prior binomial models. Does this count has the same thing?

I guess I should switch to infinite SD (0 1) truncated normal then to break from the crowd :) But in all seriousness the initial tweet hit hard. Most of my scipy tutorial is beta binom or linreg given i only have 30 minutes to showcase bayes rule in an applied way

Similar to a tweet above I spent decades being taught frequentist methods in numerous courses over hundreds of hours, and I only stumbled upon bayes rule way too late in life.

IMO if Bayes was more widely taught college, or high school, tutorials could focus on the most complex topics like mixture models or GP. But for people that don't have stats ms/phd we're starting out behind and beta binomial is the fastest way to catch our attention unfrtunly

I think that's probably right.
