So many articles suck these days.
That’s the direct implication of the innate nature of capitalism. News publishers drive researchers and writers into mill writing which unfortunately involves reworded mimicry of the few who publish the original “investigative research” they recorded from the source. They’re doing it for money too, so they aren’t alloted enough time to fully investigate off they want to publish their name to juicy details first before those who can and will fully investigate it to publish a full exposé.
We expect news publishers to dramatize titles for the click-bait effect at their websites.
But within a public forum platform (here), reposting the click-bait title into the community post effectively misleads forum readers because this space is personable and honest, so we expect an honest post title here. News publishers know this and exploit that in Reddit, but hopefully not here. Every time I see OPs copy-posting and running off, I have to suspect industry marketing efforts in effect, perhaps especially when OP is a bot.
I really don’t want to see Lemmy become polluted with news marketing as though this platform is at all open to the same abuse as that socialist dictatorship platform we left to be here.
People like you are funny because you forget that its not “Reddit” its the people who use Reddit. Guess what group a lot of people who use Lemmy are from? This is a different platform, but it has no unique identity outside of the lower amount of content and users.

That’s nearsighted. Do you wear glasses? Do they give you headaches?
