    Liking them isn’t enough, they should be a reliable source of factual information. They’re not. They’re incredibly biased and their bias is towards a world view that’s absurd. Just because your filter bubble feels good doesn’t mean it’s not harmful to you.

      I happen to think they are pretty reliable, and def not any less reliable than most news orgs. All news orgs are biased.

      I don’t think anyone on Lemmy can really talk about “filter bubble.” I mean, Lemmy is an even bigger filter bubble than reddit! lol

      But hey, I like them. I totally get lots of others don’t. I’m cool with you thinking that. All good, friend!
