This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.
Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.
RULES
1 - Remember the human
2 - Link posts should come from a reputable source
3 - All opinions are allowed but discussion must be in good faith.
4 - No low effort posts.

Me. I'm finding that the content here is better at the moment. It was a bit of a challenge at first, and I kept going back to reddit. Last week I decided to delete the reddit app (not my account) for one week to force more engagement with Lemmy and I'm happy so far. I'm missing some of the bigger subs, like the NBA sub and more subs local to my home city, but overall I'm happy. I'm going to probably have to install reddit again for those subs I mentioned, but think I'll be defaulting to Lemmy for general use
I stopped modding /r/collapse years ago since I disagreed where the community was going and it wasn't worth it to fight out. I hope we can achieve better quality here long-term though unfortunately I haven't got a lot of spare time to participate.
Where was the community going and why is it better here?
The quality has been steadily declining and the moderators picked the wrong approach: even more rules and automation instead of purely manual content curation.
It is better here because there are just two mods, the community is small, pre-filtered (early adopters) so not degraded yet. It depends on all of us where we can take it.
