The news is important to share, so I don’t want any less news. We still have people denying anything is even happening, hiding the reality away only exacerbates things. If we post news, someone otherwise ignorant of an issue may learn something when browsing all, if we don’t, that can’t happen.
I do agree the ratio of news versus other stuff could use some balancing though, but that’s on us all to find more good stuff to post (and keep posting) about rather than asking for less of the news.
Be the change you want to see!

The thing is, it’s a lot easier to copy and paste a news article than it is to make a new post from scratch - I think people are posting other stuff, or at least I am, but it gets drowned out pretty fast. I wonder if we could have a separate community for news articles? Or a sticky post for sharing news articles? I think the news is super important but I also think part of creating a space for change means that we need to foster discussion rather than doomscrolling
