Longtime Lemmy Users: aside from sheer size, do you feel like the site has changed since the influx of reddit refugees, and if so, how?locked

I've not been here long, but I'm curious how users who were present before the reddit drama feel about any potential changes to the content and tone of discussions.

been here a month or so.

def seeing more abusive people show up, and nutcases who are spamming their ideological nonsense on every post who have think being first to post about their victim hood as misunderstood holders of THE TRUTH is some sort of relevant commentary and they are being oppressed by some other group of a different ideology.

this thread seems to be exhibit A.

also way more low quality shit posting and memes which i have to spend several minutes blocking each morning.

Perfect example of Reddit refugee. BLOCK BLOCK BAN BLOCK. WHY ARE PEOPLE I DISAGREE WITH IN EXISTANCE 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Maybe you could just say I don't agree with you instead of blocking things outright

How do you appear in every single thread bitching about liberals? You know your people have safe zones? Why not just go there.

Grab yourself a hot little Truth Social ™ account and you can rant about brown people and LGBTQ people all you want. Nobody will complain.

Come on, it'll be fun. Y'all can compare truck flags.

this person didn't even read my post. they just are making up shit to be angry about because they have some sort of complex.

Mate I'm a communist 😅

This is the kind of user we should ban. The idea that having an honest conversation with a liar is ludicrous.

Going through his post history he does seem to be a communist and not right wing.

They are a troll who lies because there are no consequences for their lies. Their actually position is irrelevant if they will present any trollbait argument they think will further the anarchy in the discussion.

He's just your standard Lemmygrad genius. It's like /r/theDonald, but somehow, almost dumber, which I thought would be difficult.
