I feel like non political posts are controversial more often now than they were before. Ive seen it on some communities I visit often.
Maybe I’m seeing smth that isn’t there.
Maybe its to do with more reddit migrations who aren’t as accusatomed to Lemmy?
Has anyone else noticed it?
So you’re saying that nonpolitical posts are getting more downvotes?
Yeah normally I look at the percentage upvoted on a post, I used to notice high 90s for most posts, with 80s being very low in most circles. Now I’m seeing a lot more 80s and shockingly common 70s too.
Again ignoring news comms or political comms.
That’s a very cool observation. I don’t know what to do with it, but it can definetily tell us something.
Maybe there was a shift in comment tonality as well?
I certainly feel there’s more negative opinions about Lemmy too. Which everyone is free to have. But a rise is … interesting
