Considering a big problem with conversion on Reddit is people just reacting to the headline I’d say it’s a win. I’ve noticed here when people do comment it’s more nuanced because they actually read the article.
I love it too :-)
On specific subjects, where I really want my mind or the content like pics etc, because "important " for me (trans, Gaza), i click the link though
I wonder if the reason for this is not due to having less comments, but instead because Lemmy simply has a different demographic. For one, I’ve noticed significantly fewer bad-faith arguments compared to on Reddit. And discussions topics that would have otherwise been trolled to hell and back ended up having reasonably impartial conversations.
I’ve read that Lemmy users are generally fairly old, compared to users from other social media. I wonder if that has a role in how discussions play out on Lemmy

The article summary bot helps my lazy ass lol
Hey nothing wrong with that. I like it myself
Though often the bot skips important parts and make the story confusing.

There are plenty of posts on Lemmy where many of the commenters clearly didn’t read the article. It just depends on how click-baity the title is.
Except with some libs/racists/etc but yeah I agree for the majority.
