Me too. The old thread seems busy, but dead at the same time.

Yeah. I reckon it's because people who commented on the sub articles have nowhere else to go but the dt so there's the angry ones, shit posters and the "carry on. Nothing's going on" bunch. It seems odd.

It does feel like the grumpy club stayed, and the fun club came here. At least that's what it feels like to me.

Glad I'm not the only one who feels that way. It seems to be like the entire vibe of the sub has been killed with all the shit that's been going down recently. The usually angry people are still angry, a bunch of lurkers have come out of the woodwork whining about the sub. A couple of people who I thought were pretty chill seem to have turned angry too. It's so divisive. Feels like some sort of American politics sub with the sheer amount of controversiality everything is getting every post/comment seems to be upvoted, then downvoted, then upoted once more
