Honestly, same. I didn't fully comprehend exactly how bad it had gotten since it was kind of the boiling frog scenario. When you've been on Reddit over a decade you know the userbase is considerably worse than it used to be, way more polarized, and unfortunately way more representative of the general population.
Getting to Lemmy immediately reminded me of how the internet used to be to some degree, and when I read the engagement I don't feel like I immediately need a shower or a lobotomy afterwards. Let's hope it stays that way as long as possible.
