I have been very busy for the past 2+ months caring for a family member that had a serious medical issue (not jew-injection-related), so I have barely been able to visit the site for that time.

While I've managed to skim most posts made during that time, and even read one or two news reports and things that others have posted, I haven't had time to keep up on comments much; I've mostly only had time to just save a few of the good pics and other things that some have posted.

Things at home are a little better and "easier" now and not so hectic and non-stop, so I'm starting to be able to read more than just post titles.

I can't speak about poal as it has been the past 2 months due to barely being around for that time, but before that time, poal seemed like it had gotten less reddit-esque than it had started to become over the previous year. A lot more comments had started to be of good quality and were worth taking the time to read.

For a while, far too many comments had become nothing but a list of barely reworded copies of the 'top comment' in the post, which itself was often just a weak attempt at saying something funny or witty. It had gotten to where I would almost never read any comments at all that seemed to be barely half a sentence long. Short comments would almost always not say anything worth reading and were just inane, low effort, valueless, weak attempts at humor or statements of the obvious and were quite bot-like. For a long time now I've ignored almost all short comments except if is was made by one or two users as even short comments by these users have value and are worth reading.

Overall, I think poal is/was doing quite well in most regards. There are noticeably fewer kikes that have managed to get in and cause problems and subvert poal, which is directly due to @AOU's still-ongoing and appreciated efforts to put measures in place to help keep kikes and their tools out.

Less votes indeed, but an increase in post views, which is a good news.
