I looked at the ‘aboot’ section on this community and must have missed the part where it said this is explicitly a community based around news and only news?

    Definitely not just explicitly Toronto news!

    However Lemmy’s user base is niche for a social media platform - privacy focused, less addicted to social media, smaller, etc. so personal posts aren’t common and engagement happens less often rather than same day.

    News and precreated articles are an easy way to get some content on the platform, otherwise there would be a lot less on here.
