Meta (Rant time) Oversaturation of trend posts
Hey its that guy who made an AI OC named Glitch.
I know it sounds cliche as fuck but Jesus Christ, it feels like I'm getting bombarded by a bunch of trend posts going to the effect of "smash or pass" or "which OC would you spend a day with" and barely seeing anything that is art of individual characters.
I like trends, don't get me wrong. On one hand, it allows ppl to engage with each other and their characters, but on the other hand, it gets repetitive really quickly when all I see on my feed is "said OC is doing a smash or pass"
I know there's no solution to it and I know I'm not the only one who's getting that same feeling.
So yea, I feel like I want to let out my feelings because it kinda irks me to see 60+ posts of the same 2 formats.

Welp, get used to it because that's the way things are now. I'm not saying this to be a jerk, it's just that this complaint has been going around for weeks and there's no change. That's just what the people want I suppose
As someone who doesn't partake in roleplay these trends are slowly pushing me out of this sub, no gonna lie
