Not just here. Everywhere!

Always have. On /. 25 years ago we posted before reading TFA, it's the way.

Welcome to the internet.

I've seen just the opposite. The top comment points out all sorts of problems with the article beyond just the headline.

Take this one on using nitrogen asphyxiation for the death penalty: https://midwest.social/post/7581080

I'm personally against the death penalty, but this article was garbage with garbage arguments. The top comments highlight why. Not only did people read the article, but they were also clear headed enough to point out all its flaws even when they are broadly on the same side as the authors.

And there's a ton of articles here with very misleading titles, specially on technology communities. At some point I noticed three large threads in a row where the article title claimed one thing but even the article itself was about something completely different.

Well, I'm not a lemmy user. But I generally read the comments to gauge whether it is worth reading the article.

Article .... What is that

Am i here for newspapers or for community, hm?

Why would I risk my psyche, phone, and integrity going to a infested wild media web page, it's like you think this is reddit and I'm a curious teen

This was much more fun in the days of Fark.

There weren't enough tik toks in the article

No one is here to discuss anything in good faith.

No!! Lemmings don't rush in water they live in holes🐭

I see someone posted a spongebob picture, I love spongerobert!
