I like to always have a great care when I post news stories here on Lemmy, I always piortize the adfree/ tracking free and non-profit sources.
But what I started to see here, is that people like to share the most greedy ad and trackers filled news sources.
It’s like if Nestle started a news website I expect it to be posted here frequently.
My reason for asking is that I usually see on Reddit, there is a good mix of quality and original sources, while here it seems that always the top websites posted here are owned by the greediest corporations.
Sometimes it’s the one the algorithm has promoted, and you are in the heat of an argument.
And it’s embarrassing when my argument falls flat because I didn’t spend the extra time verifying my claim.
And it happens that I have to reply, “Sorry you were right I didn’t research this topic enough before replying.”
