Has anyone else been reading linked articles more often on Lemmy? (lemmy.ca)

When mindlessly browsing Reddit, I found that I usually just jump directly to the comments, read a couple, and continue. Lemmy seems a bit more curated (read: smaller), and therefore it's easier to actually engage in discussions, which leads me to read the article, think critically about it, and respond (if I have something to say) in the comments--bigger is not always better!

I'm with you on the YouTube thing, but you seriously should consider investing some time on getting those ads blocked.

Also SponsorBlock! Watching a video on Youtube is much nicer when you don't have to manually scrub through the interminable VPN sales pitch.

Thank you; is there a way to get this to work on the Android Toob app?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago

Yeah; I could cut and paste the url into NewPipe. But links seem to default to the Toob, and if I just want to get a quick glimpse to see if the material is worth my time, I can't be bothered.
