This article credits Legal Eagle, embeds the original, is much shorter to read than an 8-minute video and doesn’t require me to wear headphones. Lemmy is a text based social media so it makes sense to favour text sources. Definitely better than linking to some overloaded Invidious instance which seems to be the norm.

Lemmy is a text based social media

No it is not. It is a link aggregator. Can be text, can be images, can be video, can be news, etc. etc.

There’s plenty of core social components to Lemmy. It’s a platform for self-organising communities that curate, rank and discuss content. Without that I’d be using RSS reader only.

I don't understand what any of that has to do with what you or I said.
