    Yeah I’ve basically stopped reading axios because I find their articles to be condescending more than anything else. If you can’t trust your readers to understand a short article without spoon feeding them with silly bullets like this, you don’t deserve my limited attention. Their articles are harder to read now, which is clearly the opposite of their intent.

      On the other hand, when people right here on Lemmy rarely read past the headlines, maybe it deserves others’ attention?

        Yeah, I can definitely see that. Personally, I’d rather they just write a normal narrative article and then have a summary with these bullets or something at the end. Maximal accessibility.
