    6 in 10 of the top posts for the week mention or allude to AI. This sub is names aww but may as well be anti-ai-aww.

      the fact that you’re getting downvotes is especially depressing. considering this is a place a lot of us come to get away from those kind of obnoxious titles and whatnot.

      i have seen “positive” communities turn toxic for the strangest of reasons. and I think this is a bit close to that for my liking. 😥

        All of the posts were pictures that were fine here though, it’s just the titles, which in this sub are irrelevant

        Certainly not toxic at all to complain about a fad that ends up with more cute pets in the community and then make a post announcing their departure, right?

          “hey this place isnt what I thought it was. I’m sad to leave” is not a toxic mindset.

          this whole thread is just bullying in a community that is meant to be a balm from that.

            Bullying because people disagree? Downvotes are akin to bullying now?

            Jesus Christ.

            Might as well say OP is bullying those who have been enjoying the fad and posting their pets in the past week.

              surely you understand there’s a difference from “I disagree its fine.”

              and “lol nobody cares loser. fuck off.”

              i really hope so cause I’m getting close to following the OP and leaving this weird stuff behind, honestly. i come here for cute animals and art, not this. 😭

      You’ve been here since the reddit exodus so you’d have to have seen all the other silly posting jokes like beans and this is the one that gets you upset? The one where people post cute animals?

      It’s a fad, it has boosted engagement in the community, and it won’t last forever.

      Maybe check back in a week or two.
