I think the new owner has certainly been the spark here but there are real benefits to moving too that people are starting to notice. Replies here already cover a bunch of them but I’d like to echo the “algorithm” point too: so far my experience has been substantially less toxic and I put that in large part down to not being fire-hosed with content designed to enrage me every time I log in.
So far my experience is reminding me of 1990’s style connecting and chatting with interesting random people from around the world who are friendly and quirky, and I find being there a “nice” experience.
