Do you often read the articles posted on Lemmygrad?

I've started to more and more recently, but I wonder if others here do the same?

It's easy to just see them as nothing more than window-dressing and just ignore them, at least at times.

I'm wondering how many people take the time to read them or at least skim through them.

  • What are the "articles"? Just the links? Yes, I have a rule I don't reply to a thread before reading everything. It irks me when people reply to headlines.

  • 50-50, also I have periods when I look here a lot and periods where my attention is in other places

    • more inclined to engage if parts of the article was highlighted/quoted in the text belonging to the 'grad post, but then again, I might not have a reason to actually click thru to the article
    • prefer not to click off especially if it's hegemonic newsmedia nyt bbc economist etc as more often than not they write FOR headlines than detailed content. also paywalls
    • despite that, depending on the topic, I might be less lazy and find an archive or mirror to give it a peek
    • more likely to see what's up and read/skim if it's other publications and I think more likely to glean value from.
