I feel a similar way. The quality just kept going down and down to the point where I couldn’t tell what was real or not. Most just weren’t worth reading either way. Lemmy seems the same way now too. People are focusing on making “content” instead of trying to make higher quality posts.
They wont. You need to swap instances now that lemmy.world bent the knee to meta.
