- Have fun.

MODERATORS
Neither Reddit nor Lemmy are monoliths. Yes, some are likely being hypocritical, but it's also likely that there isn't much overlap between those that were critical of Nvidia's FG and not of LSFG. I say this because there is still a lot of people shitting on FG in general, whether it's justified or not.
Reddit/Lemmy don't have to be a monolith to have a clearly defined and easily seen accepted narrative.
Posts and comments that considered frame generation viable when Nvidia was the only one with the technology were massively downvoted and got absurd replies, universally. Even more so here on Lemmy.
Now the Steam Deck subreddit is dominated by posts about Lossless Scaling and users claiming they can't see any artifacts or latency at all. When AMD introduced their, quite objectively inferior, implementation of frame generation Lemmy immediately shifted tone. I can go to any random thread and say "I think FSR frame generation is great!" and nobody bats an eye. A shift in overall tone is quite easy to see and measure, regardless if the website is not written by a single individual.
