This is excellent, it’s great you had this experience. Mine was the opposite: we hired a replacement for my former boss, and at our first 1:1, I told her I was desperately burned out and unable to really accomplish much. She said, you can take vacation after we accomplish some big team goals.

That's certainly better then GTFO. I probably would have tried to establish a rapport first but given the circumstances I can understand why you wanted to confide in new leadership. The good news is she played her cards early and hopefully that gave you enough details or indicators to consider moving on. We've all had bad managers and the best thing we can do as employees is firing them when they treat us less than human. Also, I think success is the best revenge... Hope you're feeling better, sorry you had to deal with that.

Both kinds of results are possible.

But to prevent the worse, just don't tell.
