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?
I tend to agree. To me just a link to an article without any other input is just spam. I don’t see the point in just being the comments section for someone else’s site and content.
Most people don’t seem to agree, but at least for the community I moderate I try to avoid it myself. I won’t stop anyone else from doing it though.
