Is it me or has the community gotten worse...

More or less the only thing I've noticed is more and more people joining into extreme trials and they haven't even tried to watch a video on the fight.

There's no rule that says they have to.
Some people like going in blind for fights, regardless if it's savage.



If you don't want these people in your PF, then clearly mention they should watch the video/know the strats in the description.
That's the whole point of party finder - finding people fitting a given setup/description.

Some people don’t learn from videos, they learn from experience.

I’m one of those people. I could watch a video of a fight ten times before I play it, and I’m still not going to get it until I’ve played through it myself.
Some also prefer to run content blind, they view gameplay content as spoilers. Fair enough that they should then run the content with like-minded people if that’s the case, but still. If a ‘learning’ party hasn’t specified that everyone ‘should know the fight already’ then it seems like fair play to me.
