Not The Onion

Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
PieFed has features that even Reddit lacks, like combining together comments across all cross-posts (and plans to tweak that still further, like add the ability to a community to opt-out of it, though I find that it helps with community discovery).
Well damn. That sounds.....very nice.
Historically, Usenet clients tended to respond to both groups in response to articles posted to multiple newsgroups.
This tended to result in trolls doing things like posting "I'm in the market for a computer. Which is better, PC or Mac?" to comp.os.ms-windows.advocacy and comp.os.mac.advocacy with the intention of starting flamewars.
