I’ve noticed that since 8.3 dropped theres been a large influx of bad tanks. All last week and even the few M+ dungeons I’ve done today, a lot of the tanks I’ve found just don’t know the dungeon, mechanics, or what they’re supposed to do in general.
Had five seperate tanks insist on pulling Council o’ Captains together rather than doing the mini-event in dungeon to make the fight easier. Had a few of them back peddle into other packs of mobs and face pull while blatantly putting the blame on other group members. And these are on things as simple as +2s and +3s or even base mythic.
I like that finding a tank is easier and faster now, but if it means I have to gamble on finding a crappy tank I’d rather go back to having to wait a while for a good tank when my normal groups not on.
For the record, My void walker tanks better than me on an actual tank.

this is why I only tank for my guild. So I can learn how the dungeon works without being yelled at

Keystones arent a learning environment though. Theres nothing wrong with someone learning how to tank but if you queue for a keystone you need to already know what you’re doing going into it.
Hint: the good tanks are probably not signing up to +2’s and +3’s 
In 10+ keys the tanks I’ve grouped with are mostly competent players that understand mechanics and know what they’re doing.

Ill tank for guildies and when I feel like offering the service to the public via LFD.
I refuse to tank LFR, not because I cant, but, holy crap, have you seen the amount of idiots in there? O.o
To be fair, I love tanking and would consider myself decent enough, but even I won’t tank for randoms
