I wouldn't call it "nasty" - still the tone has degraded.  There are a
few other changes I have observed.

 - Discussions of advanced topics almost vanished these days.
 - There are a lot beginner questions.
 - There are also quite a few questions which either look like
homework or can be answered easily from documentation or testing with
IRB.
 - Matz, Nobu and other folks from Japan seem to show up much more
rarely than they used to.

Even though I still read (and reply) here pretty often I have to admit
it has become a less interesting place than it used to be.

Certainly not.
