I like to always have a great care when I post news stories here on Lemmy, I always piortize the adfree/ tracking free and non-profit sources.

But what I started to see here, is that people like to share the most greedy ad and trackers filled news sources.

It’s like if Nestle started a news website I expect it to be posted here frequently.

My reason for asking is that I usually see on Reddit, there is a good mix of quality and original sources, while here it seems that always the top websites posted here are owned by the greediest corporations.

    My problem is that people are repeating the same posts over and over again. You see it on News, Politics .etc

    Yes we know already how X did or say Y thing leading to Z result. We read about it a week ago and maybe even 2 days ago. We don’t need repetition.

    And for the sake of the question, it’s just a symptom of how poorly attuned people are to finding good solid sources. They do it out of convenience.

      That’s the price of a thriving community. There is no system with an output without waste; just downvote it.
