List articles and the increase in junk posts on DN

    But is this really a community any more?

    It has become a list of Designer related links, where the majority used to be interesting/worth clicking, but now a bulk of them feel "fake" and the decent discussions are vanishing.

    There is a link to a Podcast section at the top, where the last Podcast was released almost 2 years ago.

    Doesn't it feel like it's only a matter of time before DN is abandoned completely?

      I agree. It's become a dumping ground for anyone with a blog, Dribbble, Behance or Medium account. And spammers love it too. A majority of posts here are junk and actual discussion among members seems to be less frequent. To get back to downvoting, I'm finding I pretty much downvote most of the posts on the recent page automatically.

      The place already feels abandoned, especially by the owners, even if they do rarely drop in with a platitude saying yeah yeah we are invested in the site, etc.
