In another thread, I read a user's comment about how the lemmy experience has got progressively worse over the past few months, with a lot more trash content making it to their front page.

Is this your experience? How was lemmy when you joined and how do you think it's changed?

Mine's gotten better, but it's taken some curation to get there.

Since I joined Lemmy during the Reddit meltdown, the amount of quality content has steadily risen. I run a small instance (~25 users), so my "all" feed isn't a deluge of everything under the sun. I also block bot accounts which reduces a lot of the crap (reposts, spammy comments, etc).

Hello fellow small instance admin.

I have a few hundred users but I'm pretty sure closer to 25 actually active lol

where is the line at being small? lemdro.id just passed 1k users :)

I thought All included posts from all instances in the Fediverse and that Local only showed posts originating in your local instance’s communities. Is that incorrect?

I believe all only shows the magazines or subs or whatever that have been synced to local. on a large instance, that will be plenty but in a small instance you'll have to sign up and then everyone in the instance will see that sub in all.
