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?

    It’s been alright. I’m still having issue with the communities I want to follow, specifically certain games or franchises, either not having enough people posting or communities just not existing.

    I still stand by my decision to not use Reddit unless I absolutely have to for troubleshooting issues, but Lemmy and Kbin are lonely platforms still and that hasn’t changed since I’ve joined.

    I've also noticed how easy it is for a bot to spam and there is little to no safeguards around it. a week or two ago, there was a bot spamming a transphobic video to almost every community I followed so my feed was flooded. if a single account can do that, I can only imagine what a group of trolls could accomplish.
