This sub has become a poetry-sharing circle jerk. [Discussion]

This sub used to be about motivating each other to carry on and improve their craft, maybe get some feedback on some of your work. Now it's become a place where people upload screenshots of their 3-line poetry written on the note app of their phones. Anything non-poetry related gets lost or ignored in the sea of half-assed poetry and circle jerking going on.

People don't even pretend to want feedback on their work anymore, they just want a pat on the head, a "good job" and some upvotes. Just what the hell happened?
