      Because you’ve already posted this in overseas news?

      Yeah, scrolling ‘Local’ these double posts do become a bit of a block. They are posted in different communities, i suppose.

        Yeah ha. I was scrolling All sorted by New last night and there was a massive wall of posts from Dav to dozens of comms across many instances. They must read a lot.

          Yeah, i’ve noticed that batch behaviour Dav does, i imagine they must sit down in the evenings, catch up on the news of the day for themselves, then share the articles to Lemmy as they go.

          I hope they actually read the articles though, feels fake to me when posts are just shovelled up and the user doesn’t seem to have taken the timebto read it themselves.

            I think judging by the timing it seemed like they post everything around the same time but not like all day long and not everything so it’s conceivable they’re reading a lot and just keeping a list to share at the end or start of their day. Kinda hoping they find and share from sources I’m unfamiliar with to expand the range.

              Oh yeah thats a good idea. I’d probably get too lost with the contents of the articles if i didn’t post one at a time, even if i’d previously read them! But all power to someone who can do that!

              Kinda hoping they find and share from sources I’m unfamiliar with to expand the range.

              Too true, that’d be my one current gripe with AZ, and Dev’s pretty big on that train.

              Sometimes its just ABC articles followed by Guardian articles. Makes me worry AZs a bit stale with such a heavy reliance on those two medias.
