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.

      Huh? Why even suggest this? That’s not what OP is getting at at all…

      That’s like burning your house down to fix a small leak.

        While I also hate ads and tracking, there have always been ads in the paper. Making news is not a free service.

        Part of the reason people flock to Fox News is because it’s specifically not paywalled.
