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?

I thought I was being targeted by trolls, so I wasn't the only one

Oh dear day three and this thread is still going and doubling in size.

Definitely has gotten worse. I even resorted to blocking users who do nothing but antagonize others
