Sorry, no link to some ‘news’ article. /s
I’m a newcomer myself, but it seems my feed is just filled with low-effort news links with no other content. It’s c/mildlyinfuriating at this point. Maybe moderators outside of communities that are specifically for current events could require at least an effort by the op to add some of her own thoughts?
Did you expect something else from a link aggregator?
According to Wikipedia, lemmny is news aggregator and discussion forums.
A LOT of posts, even some with 30 or 50 upvotes have no comments…
Some of the best parts (also the worst parts) of reddit were comment threads.
Yes. Reddit would not be what it is were it not for discussion.
The discussion is in the comments. It’s even a meme that no one reads the article before commenting.
Most valuable and interesting info is not in the news liknk comments. But in personal posts and q&a.
People add “reddit” to the Google search, not to find s comment for news link.
I try my best to post original content, or, at least, add some personal thoughts if post is a link.
Lemmy is too small and too techy so far, I would say.
“Lemmy” != A single instance where all content is the same format and without discussion (federated thinking is almost as hard as having the tools). Also patience, we’re on the bleeding edge of something here. Pretend its 2000 again.
Yeah I am referring to my federated feed of multiple communities spread across multiple instances. But whatever.
Be the change, post something 🤷.
Everyone complains, but no one does anything about it…
Seriously. I like to see vibrant comment threads so I post on pretty much anything I read. No use in whinging about it, try to build the platform with your own initiative!
Yeah, so do I. I sometimes even comment stuff that I know are wrong, just to get a conversation going, lol 😂.
