To me it’s reading from different perspectives and other’s writing style. It’s really important when it comes to political stuff or anything else that you need to base a decision on.

But I think it applies even just to plain articles about a niche you follow.

Like, maybe some new GPU features get released for Linux or something. Gamingonlinux might cover it from a Gaming perspective whereas Phoronix might focus more on the hardware aspect of things and the original blog post or changelog or whatever might just give a mostly a list of changes and a description.

      I usually go some hours between posts of similar articles, to try to break them up. They might stack if you’re viewing a comm directly if it isn’t that busy of one, but they shouldn’t on your main feeds

        Not sure if yours are the ones I see or not as I don’t really check names of posters too often, but it does come up at times.
