Well it has been a bit more quiet than usual the past week or two, but whenever there is some official news from MS, a new build, or new market share numbers the usual trolls come out of hiding.
There is also a difference between being disappointed and trolling. As a WP user myself there are a lot of things that disappoint me about the platform and I will discuss those with others. However, there are people there that openly admit to using other platforms (and either haven't used WP in years or have never used WP) and routinely come by to talk about how WP is trash, or that WP users are blind fanboys.
Funny you also mention the circlejerk sub, because the kids from that sub also tend to post their **** memes on the main sub yet the mods don't do anything, probably because most of them aren't even active anymore.
