Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Yeah I think we take for granted that the replies/posts are mostly by real people here, or at least I do. It's like forgetting that you have to argue with your OS after using linux over windows.

I recall seeing a Reddit sub that was entirely populated by bots. The replies were nearly indistinguishable from humans. It really coloured my view of Reddit - what’s the point of engaging when I’m likely talking to lines of code?
