Huh, now that is a truly interesting bit of information.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 months ago (1 children)

An interesting bit of information without any sources at all...

As is good and proper on Lemmy

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Providing sources is probably a lot more common on Lemmy than anywhere else

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

idk man, i'd probably bet money on scientific papers,

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Lol obviously I meant places where random users post content

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

i mean, technically the authors posting papers are going to be pretty randomly sampled.

im just continuing the joke where it left off

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Not sure what joke that is, but Lemmy is a lot better to provide sources than users of sites like Facebook or reddit. That was my point.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

i believe the joke was that we're on lemmy, which is pretty shit, compared to most academic settings, better than facebook argubaly, but that's a low bar.

Something tells me you're often disappointed

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

generally yes, i find most people and things to be rather boring and uninteresting.

reddit was exceptionally boring. Lemmy is a decent bit better.
