That’s the beauty of Lenny, we can change the “Standard Fare”. I would much rather a post title that completely conveys the idea at hand rather than the confusing/ flat out wrong/or clickbait titles we get from “news” sites. The only thing that should be mandatory is a link to the article where you found the information.
I agree, /r/news started that policy because users would sensationalize the articles further and they didn’t have enough mods to monitor if every submission was being taken out of context.
Lemmy doesn’t have the same growth incentives as reddit so hopefully we can make things better here.
Its pretty standard fare that if you post an article, you use its headline as the post headline
