Title basically. I was here at the very start of it all and really enjoyed it. However I felt it lost its uniqueness within a few months of mass migration and started turning a bit like reddit again so I deleted my old account. However Reddit has only gotten much much worse since, and Lemmy has stayed about the same. So here again.
Yeah, I feel like when I first came here every third post was about Linux and every third post was about star trek. A lot of the remaining third was beans. Now only every tenth post is Linux and trek.
So we need more beans…
That is one interpretation
Yeah, but what if you enjoy the Trek, Linux, and beans?
I posted about lentils today. Does that count?
Its the linux of food so yes.
@Fizz @Diplomjodler3 I’ve had a .world account for over two years and think its both worse and improving. I love the discussions and diversity, but bad actors are quickly ruining coms.
100% agree.
What really sucks is seeing an interesting thread grow, say like 50 responses and 80% of them are good and legit. Then at some point the bad actors come along and a few hours later it’s 300 posts, with 90% of the new content being the bad actors telling off the original responders they are terrible people for what they said or how they are tacitly fascists for not throwing themselves on the spikes to fight facism.
and of course, also reporting the interest and nuanced responses as hate speech trying to get them removed.
