This is on point. For the rest of us (most of us) who have been here the whole time, it’s been like the boiling frog (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_frog). It changed very slowly and we haven’t noticed it. But for someone who completely left and then rejoined a year later, it’s a stark difference.
I miss the 2022 days on my @coolkat account… I used to spend hours scrolling through the posts. I leave for a year. I can’t even spend 5-10 minutes here sometimes.
i miss the golden days of wasteof. i can't provide an exact pinpoint of when that was, but it was probably during 2022. the thing is that i used to like almost every single post in my feed. that is most certainly not the case anymore. 80% of my feed is filled with bots, repost chains, spam, wars about random stuff, fighting, and more. it's honestly not pleasant at all trying to use wasteof with all that is happening on here. there are people that have made 60 posts in the past two days and have filled 32 pages of posts THIS YEAR alone. i make 60 posts in 2 months. i've been used wasteof for over 2 years on this account and i only have 52 pages of posts. this is not okay, and it needs to stop. along with this, think about it from the perspective of admins/mods. they have to deal with moderating everything i discussed earlier. they have to deal with the spam of accounts created just for the purpose of stat boosting, which against the rules. walk a mile in their shoes. think about them the next time before you start spamming, making repost chains, or really doing anything on here.
