Quality of cf contests these days

Is it just me, or are cf contests becoming worse and worse.

I feel like the quality of contests has went down significantly this year.

Problems in contests used to be original and fun to solve , but now it's very rare to find a good problem. Almost every problem is either unoriginal or very boring.

Problems used to be 70% observations, with the remaining 30% split between code and topics. Problems now are 50% observations and 50% code and topics, And sometimes even less than 50% for observations.

Not to mention the huge increase in cheaters which made problems rating go down. 1200 rated problems now feel almost twice as hard as they used to be.

I really miss أيام الخوالي (The good old days).

Anyway, Miku loves you and hopes you have a great day!
