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?

Yeah for sure, we have a lot of growing ahead of us before Lemmy truly establishes its own culture.

I would say that my personal experience has been that there is a significantly higher proportion of non-American Lemmings, as opposed to redditors. Like if reddit is 50% American, my feeling is that Lemmy is closer to 30% American. You can even tell when the Europeans wake up and are active, because they comprise such a large portion of the userbase.

It's hard for me to assess if that is reflected in the political content, because I always mostly ignored communities of that type, both on reddit and here.
