Is it just me, or have the comments on Lemmy become extra aggressive over the past 3 months? (lemmy.world)

I feel like things on Lemmy were pretty chill several months ago, and that’s started to change.

People used to talk each other like they would talk to a neighbor. Now I get the sense that people have become quick to be negative, attack, and not be constructive.

Am I crazy in feeling like the vibe has changed?

There has been an uptick in right wing nutbags and bOtH sIdEs morons... Coupled with the fact that we have to deal with Trump AGAIN had made all of us angrier because we didn't believe our neighbours could be THIS dumb to vote for a criminal that tried to overthrow democracy.

It's resulted in a tone of "I'm sick of this shit!!" from the left

Trump is a cancer.
