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?

In "link aggregator" you have the word... "link". Also, how about you try to be the change you want to see?

Uh what? I just posted actual original content, that being the change I’d like to see.

Why are people claiming that Lemmy is just a ‘link aggregator’? It doesn’t have to be.
