So yes, but no, unfortunately... The problem is with defederation. Those of us that are federated with everyone see all of those links, but if one or more of those instances is defederated from others (Like BeeHaw) then they are excluded - and it makes sense to post that link on their instance as well.

This isn't going to be solved by not posting news articles, it will have to be mitigated through a grouping of some sort, like a multireddit for fedi.
