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?

    I get what you’re saying, but I see it more like:

    Car show #1 charges $75 admission, you have to wear the color shirt they approve of, and no Ferraris (the organizer just doesn’t like them)

    Car show #2 and #3 aren’t run by weirdos, so the car community still has somewhere to go.

    It sucks to have the crowd spread out, but I still think it’s an overall gain to be decentralized.

      I think people fetishize the concept of choice far too much, especially when there hasn’t yet been a reason there need to be different instances with different rules.
