In another thread, I read a user's comment about how the lemmy experience has got progressively worse over the past few months, with a lot more trash content making it to their front page.

Is this your experience? How was lemmy when you joined and how do you think it's changed?

It was more open 4 months ago before all the weirdos joined and decided to downvote everyone who says something that upsets them. And there is A LOT that upsets these people. Anything except memes.

Seems to me that an entire generation has decided they are keyboard warriors and they are fighting with their downvote buttons.

But downvotes doesn't matter here. Still, I try to not post something they they will be upset by. But it's still ridiculous.
