I’m mildly annoyed with clicking on a thumbnail only to be suddenly taken to a page I know/care nothing about.

    Sure, but much like Reddit, the primary use case is just reading the article title and commenting based off of that. /s

        When it comes to news, I already know that very few possible events would have facts that were notable enough to change how I feel overall about the topic/event.

        But, since I intentionally consume way less news than I used to, other than some Jon or John clips, I read my news.

        Any fact finding I end up doing it just a hodgepodge of finding what I can through search, relying on primary sources where possible obviously.

        So, when it comes to news, reddit was, and Lemmy is the place I go to be aware of events that I’d see if I watched legacy media / social media. And to just vent and maybe learn something.

        I’m a title only kind of gal these days. Anything more, and I’d end up as a headline myself in short time.

      Hey, we look to the comments to see if someone else read it and summarized it first before commenting!
