Important news or diaries folks worked hard on would get pushed off the recent list fast by 'tweet and a line of text' diaries. They'd then get recommendations that would keep them for a day or two in trending's list, keeping better stuff in the shadows where you might not be aware of them.
Signing in usually meant seeing a wall of Trump pics on the main page. Sometimes his hateful face would be in every diary thumbnail in both trending and recent.
There was censorship. Typing 'MAGAT' would get you bojo'd. Banned. Cliques would gang up on folk with uncomfortable progressive truths and flag them as a group, getting them bojo'd also.
I watched Kos fire talented writers and then invited in the Associated Press in to scab for them - with their Right Wing slanting and no monitoring them by admins to minimize that, unlike they promised.
The constant groveling for money such as chiding you about how many diaries you'd read because you were reading them for free - in every diary.
I haven't gone back at all since Joe quit. Daily Kos was all in on getting rid of him and it pissed me off. I'd been there 12 years, too.
