I see a lot of comments from bootlickers on how the protests are dumb and stupid and dont work and engagement metrics are still holding but the quality of posts and comments has noticeably depreciated imo. So much so that whenever I visit the site Im actually shocked at how bad it is.
Also lots of negative-to-hateful comments about how Lemmy is “a failure” and “only nerds like it”. The vibe has gotten way darker over there. It’s much nicer here: full of excitement, optimism, and hope.
