Has anyone else noticed this, across the fediverse, Lemmy specifically. A lot of new users, but also a lot of first posts that are very inflammatory/rage baity.

Do we have another legit influx of new users? Or do we just have some bad actors trying to stir the pot? Or maybe I’m imagining it.

    Nothing out of the ordinary personally.

    Meta communities are prompt to drama, but that’s the usual.

    Edit: I just remember I’ve seen a few one-day account posting obvious ragebait. That usually gets removed quickly.

      Yeah in my small areas of the fedi, im not seeing any inflammatory posts. Of course there’s like dozens of us compared to you all, but its a happy balance.
