Seeing the same news posted two days later is considered terminally online?
How can we have a discussion about news if we pretend whatever we discussed yesterday doesn't exist anymore?
If there was a new development I wouldn't speak up. But this is just a different outlet posting the same news story, only two days later compared to the rest.
Its like sometimes people don't see every single post.
I agree, but why does that mean we need to regurgitate the same news stories every few days?
Is it the same user posting both?
If not, they most likely missed the first one. I doubt most people check whether something that looks new to them has already been posted.
Do you want people to post the same news story every week in case you happened to miss it?
I don't care if different people do or don't post it multiple times across multiple days. I already get to see some cross community duplication, so someone posting because they are late to the game gets lost in the noise.
It isn't like a discussion can only happen one time and if people miss it then they are out of luck. If someone posts late and nobody wants to engage the repost will fade off into obscurity.
