Should we allow creating posts like ".NET News Daily Issue" in this community? (lemmy.ml)

I don't want to be rude and I don't accuse people posting these kind of links here of having bad intentions, but I personally find them kind of annoying. There is too much of them right now and it's hard to even start a discussion, when there is no information in the title on what's actually inside.

I believe we should stick to "one topic, one post". What do you think?

I'm glad you are posting links you find interesting, that what I come here for, to see links that people find interesting.

What I don't like is the form of it. You are pasting links to news aggregator inside news aggregator. This form kills discoverability: in other communities, you can scroll through list of topics and more or less learn just from headlines what is happening. In this community - you can't. It also kills discussion - when I comment, I need to paste link to the article I am referring to, because otherwise it would be impossible to tell which story I am referring to.

I might of course ignore it, but I believe it is not neutral to the entire community. Many such posts in a row might suggest to new users that mostly bots are in here, in effect discouraging them to stay. That is why I think we should not allow such links in here, but I'll leave this decision to moderators and I'll accept it whatever they decide.
