Why.
The laziness of the average person continues to amaze me. You’ve chosen to ask and wait for the answer to a question which could have been answered by reading the article you’ve commented on. “Why” is the reason journalists pen these articles.
Honestly, fuck link aggregators. If I wanted to read articles elsewhere I would've done so.
Not to mention that they are terrible for web longevity. Website gone? Most likely content gone as well.
I thought that the whole idea of Lemmy was to prevent content getting nuked if any of our subreddits are gone. Linking to articles without a decent summary added is actively anti-user in my opinion.
