      Some clients show an excerpt (I ain’t complaining about you putting it in a comment though) so probably to that guy it looked like you just copy/pasted this thing

        it’s hard to imagine anyone using lemmy wo excerpts to articles since lemmy is 90% links to articles.

          On Thunder I have no excerpt and I find really annoying all those who post link without comments. They are just doing clickbait like any news aggregator. If I want that there is already google news for instance…
          So I value those who add a comment to their post and say why they post it and find it interesting. Isn’t Lemmy all about sharing thought, so does poster except other to do it for him and just want to have popular posts?

            i wish i understood why people use those apps to browse lemmy. i used to think that they were pointless, but watching them drive up the userbase numbers up for .world and .ee made it seem like i must be missing something so i tried all of the ones i could find and the experience was the same for me as it is with a browser.
