There are some communities where the vast majority of posts are by on or two users reposting news articles.
Sometimes they’ll summarize below, but they will almost never share their opinions on the article, or even just ask what others may think about in regards to this aspect or that aspect. So the entire feed is just URLs.
I would feel more engaged to comment on those posts, or even start a post in the community, when it doesn’t feel like a bunch of robots reposting the daily slop.
(looks at [email protected] that I mod) I feel personally attacked…
Seriously, I get what you’re saying. I do it because I don’t have anything meaningful to say when nobody else is posting, but I want the community to not die.

I understand this, but
Could this not be true for everyone else? Someone needs to start the discussion. Otherwise it will just stay dead. Imo it’s better to either leave it or come up with at least something.
