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?

It comes in waves. I don’t like the overly sensitive crap either though.

Lemmy is a left leaning echo chamber loaded with hateful and violent speech toward Trump and the GOP in general. Whenever I bring this up, I get downvoted to oblivion. I hardly engage anymore, not like I used to. Too much crazy. Trust me, I fucking hate Trump, but the death threats and shit are too much

On a related note. Is there an Android Lemmy app that allows me to view my subs as a homepage? It's only local and all in Voyager.

I've noticed the comments becoming more and more hostile and a lot more argument than discussion recently.

It's becoming the new reddit
