Dev.to is Gone: SPAM is What Powers It Now

I used to be able to read the latest posts because, let's be honest: The Top feed is filled with useless, brainless listicles, and the featured feed becomes rather repetitive during they course of the day. So I used to browse the Latest feed the most.

Nowadays, what one can see is endless articles about asbestos, asbestos lawyers and a few how-to's on how to upgrade airplane tickets. It seems that Dev.to developers are incapable of finding a solution to this nonsense and for me, Dev.to is no longer an enjoyable place to find development-related content.

At the pace SPAM is overtaking the website, I believe it is no longer worth coming here every day. Maybe once or twice a week and read the Featured feed so it doesn't get repetitive.

What do you guys think? Is this boat sinking like the Titanic, or can it still be saved?

Ah, I thought I'm the only one who couldn't enjoy Dev.to articles anymore since the spam attacks! It's been days.
