How does the community feel about season 7 jungle compared to season 6?

Just curious how the community feels about jungle update back at start of season 7. As a season 6 jungle main I personally dislike it. But I will admit I felt jungle was op in season 6 and needed to be nerfed. I am also low elo so curious how high elo players feel.

I think my taking 3ish months off at the start of the season combined with changes to jungle really is what has brought on all the rage I have been feeling in regards to this game. Actually there are some other personal reasons plus never been a fan of match making but that's besides the point.

Last season I felt in control most games when I was in the jungle. But now I feel lost. I am really bad at clearing the new camps and almost don't really want to do them. I feel by the time I do them I have missed a gank opportunity or my teammate is about to die again. Last season when climbing through silver multiple times I didn't really rage all that hard when my teammates fed because I knew as long as I outplayed enemy jungler and out farmed them I had a good chance of winning. This season I just feel like my back is against the wall all the time and even if I get fed there is still a fairly high chance I won't be able to carry. It also feels like we really in a snowball meta right now, which I have never been good at.

Do I just try to gank more early and forget farming? Or wait to farm after ganking or counter ganking or counter jungling? Like by the time I attempt a gank and go to gromp and wolves (say they just re spawned for example) my mid & bot probably will have died. Maybe to enemy jungle, maybe not. Then it's like "well maybe I will go top" but top will be pushed to enemy turret. Idk I just feel lost most of the time. And then the games where I get a good start my teammates usually are fairly coordinated and will follow me up for dragons or ganks or jungle invades and I can almost just afk at baron because they fed and will carry.

I know getting uneven games has never changed and never will. But I guess last season I felt more in control of what was going on around me (at least gold 3 and lower). But now even in silver 2 I just feel lost most games. I would love to go back to jungling but I just tilt so easy when I barley get a couple camps done and hit lvl 4 and their is high chance my lanes have already all died.

Guess I underestimated the changes or just how much worse I have gotten.

jg is my worst role so it doesn't really have anything to do with me besides the epic monsters

Allows for a lot less variation in champions and playstyles, creates a cattle-shoot of purely meta junglers if you actually care about winning the game.
