Should all posts include a thought, opinion, or summary from the OP? Is a post title usually enough?

If you appreciate posts that just a link to a video, news article, blog post, or website with no post text by the OP, why do you like them?

I'd rather avoid editorialization. Would rather have opinions go in a top-level comment.

I think that it's useful from a context standpoint if the subtitle or first sentence or paragraph of an article provides a good summary of what the article is about.

I hadn’t considered that. I often do appreciate replies more than the OP’s take.

OPs always have the worst takes.

Except you, you seem alright, OP.
