When a headline or thread starts with "Why..." you can often reply to it simply by repeating the question without the first word and emphasising the new first word, eg:
Is Lemmy not a place for thoughts and observations, rather than just links, questions, and memes?
I'm not sure that's true as a starting point. So not point trying to answer "why" it might be the case.
Oh yeah, I agree with all that!
Yeah, there was that brief period, maybe 4-6 years where each release had at least something exciting. I guess they've just run out of genuinely useful/innovative stuff to add.
Partly it's aesthetic - it takes up so much room!
Partly it's preferential - I'm not keen on machine generated answers being prioritised over actual sources.
Mainly though it's because when I do a search, I usually know what website I expect/want to get to, and just want that available to click immediately.
Ghostbusters for me too. Never gets old :-)
