Honestly, I used to log into D2 every day. Some days I did hard stuff like master raids, GMs, etc.
Other days I logged in just to chill and do easier stuff while I hang out with people.
With the entire game's floor being raised up, it makes the easier stuff more tedious, and it makes it less chill.
Like, Bungie, no one's loading into Vanguard Ops looking for "a challenge". Especially considering that it's not a challenge. Things just hit a little harder. Strikes don't have wipe mechanics, and they're impossible to fail.
I'm so exhausted by how the game is now. Everything feels like running through sand. Sure I can do it, but it doesn't feel good, and I don't really want to.
Please consider changing some of this stuff back to what it was.

That change of minus power to basically everything that isn't a tier 2 nightfall and such as well as power disabled in patrols and up was by far one of their worst decisions. If players truely wanted it, they could have just put a seperate difficulty option that makes minus power and such a toggle. Instead, they make the game worse like what people like Salt wanted. His responce to players asking him why he doesn't do white/blue rarity only raid runs anymore is that the game is too hard for that. Looks like your wish game true Salt. A true monkey's paw moment.
