Completely agree. Back in the day I used to just scroll through /r/all and constantly stumble across cool stuff, now it's devoid of any decent content. Whenever I read any of those millions of aita posts they'd always be clear fiction, and then full of comments as if they were absolutely true. The general quality of content on that site is at absolute rock bottom.
I am glad Lemmy has a small barrier to entry. It's easy enough that you don't need any sort of technical knowledge to sign up and use but it requires a little more effort than most social media, which hopefully acts as something of a filter. Reddit now kind of reminds me of usenets "eternal September".
