SW not what it (or EP) used to be

I keep reading posts saying SW isn't what it (or EP) used to be... mostly it's a lot of complaints about what I'm not sure.

It seems rather vague as to exactly what people are missing, why they aren't active, or why so many have left.

I have to believe if people could be more specific, and could better explain (more than saying it's the feed) what is wrong/missing, then it could be corrected.

On the other hand, I wonder if it isn't the nature of the beast (social media). That what once was new and exciting has become disappointing. That the beast hasn't somehow fulfilled the dream or fantasy.

Does anyone care to join in and offer up ideas. thoughts and comments?

Not only was EP different, but it was different times. It was happier times. The chronological feed made it so you saw every post, what you looked at wasn't being manipulated so you saw the diversity. There were also a lot more people on there who interacted. More perspective. More to relate too.

Mostly it's this feed. It's very frustrating and inconsistent. I don't want to be filtered like Facebook. I loved how EP was so much not like Facebook.

But truthfully, people weren't at war with each other like we are now. Even the trolls and people who claimed to be terrorists would chat with you. There weren't cliques.
