I think it comes and goes in waves, the crap it is. Never it was completely gone, and it never will. I have the 'feeling' whenever we change something big, a larger group of the community takes an extra effort again.
A key issue: The amount of interactions is low, even when we see a increase in the amount of comments made to the chain. I have less pleasure in writing and publishing when interaction stays rock bottom. Result: I write and post less. Others leave the platform when they dont see a social element, while I still believe in the concept in general and don't want to let go :)
