dsogaming is one of the most garbage "gaming" news sites, they are just a clickbaity website that does 0 research on their articles. I appreciate that nanoufo wants to keep the community alive posting a lot, but the amount of bullshit he shares from shitty websites is amazing.

I know John from way before he started DSOGaming or english articles. I do not agree that he is particularly clickbaity, nor do I agree that he does 0 reasearch on his articles. I am not reading DSOG often, but I remember a lot of well written and researched articles from him

So much of the stuff posted on lemmy is just garbage, and would have been better off written by ChatGPT.

[–] alphacyberranger@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Correction : So much stuff posted across the internet nowadays are garbage and click baits nowadays . It's not just on lemmy, it's everywhere.

Link aggregators are supposed to help filter the crap out.

[–] ABCDE@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Yeah, but no need for it to be posted here in such volumes though. Reddit generally was good for filtering it out.

Lack of moderation, and even if one instance does put in the effort to curate - you just get the link from a different instance anyway because the OP cross posts to a dozen of them.
