Yesterday it kinda hit me that the feed left a lot more “reddit-y” suddenly. More american politics for one.
There is a also aspecific thing that alerted me: Sudden appearance of this pattern plagueing reddit where a post about some bad muslim person escalates into edgy atheism which is also kinda racist and lowkey fascist in a very specific way.
I don’t have a lot of empiric evidence, just the vibe seems to have shifted.
I came back here after a long time and i had the same feeling. I think has more to do with the level of the discussion at large nowadays, more than the platform itself.
oh, sorry you mean insulting, harassing, and threatening other users when the counterpoint your comments isn’t a ‘high level’ of discussion?
