I wish people would get in the habit of posting the original source of the news instead of an article about the original source. This article doesn't add any useful commentary or insight beyond what is already stated in the original post.
If I was the tyrant king of Lemmy I would force all communities to do this
You know what, I honestly hate this argument.
The normal user that has a job, a life, a world outside of social media isn't going to be going to monitor and go to all the disparate original sources to find this information. The journalists who are paid to go to all of these original sources, aggregate, add their thoughts if they have it, and let their audience know about all the news. They deserve to be paid by their job to aggregate and inform with some clicks and some ad revenue.
Otherwise, how about you go and trawl the internet for all gaming news all day every day and do it for free for the rest of us instead of complaining. But we all know none of you complainers do, you go to the same gaming sites OP does, reads the same articles, and then just complain about how unoriginal everyone else is.
Tbf, the article author links the original source right at the start lol
One thing you'll learn on Lemmy is that they don't want to give low effort articles the clicks.
Then why didn't you use it?
