It's changed in a matter of a week or so. I can't even believe the drop in quality contribution. It's actually made me upset. I was so excited, with such sound discourse. But I'm just seeing:
This. What he said. This is the way.
Etc.
Very. Very. Disappointed.
I definitely agree. In just a matter of days Lemmy has fallen to almost Reddit-like quality and I don’t see what could have caused it, there wasn’t a huge spike in users. It’s really weird
I was going to say days, but felt it was just me. Literally in days, the shitposts have started. What a shame.
Shitposts are more appreciated than quality posts.
There was an increase in users when the Sync app went live (a few days ago). So, absent of any other evidence, I'm blaming them.
