You're not imagining things, writing quality is so crap now. IMO it's because of publishers, they started letting whatever QC they had slip because they saw how Twilight did gangbusters despite being mediocre. Fanfic was better 20 years ago because it was written by people who read books that were a lot higher quality than what's available now and learned a lot of technique from them. I think the current batch of writers (including fanfic veterans that have had their brains cooked by reels/Tiktok AND the internet switching over to an image based culture instead of a writing based culture) are much worse at writing because the quality of literature that they're reading in their off time has gone downhill. The problem is that's not something you notice unless you deliberately seek out older lit!
