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?

The spoiler block doesn't work on Sync it seems, unless you used the wrong >!spoiler tags!<. I wonder if it was the full stop or it being broken over several lines.

Seems like Sync only understands one-line spoilers, so you need each line in a separate spoiler

I definitely haven't used the wrong tags because my instance formatted it for me when I selected the text and clicked the spoiler button above the text box. I'm sorry yours uses a different format or that your reader/viewer application doesn't support it.

Weird, I did the same from the editor. it works for me on Sync bot not on lemmy.world on web /: Guess they need to sync these, otherwise we'll have spoilers floating around everywhere in the face of unsuspecting readers
