I see a lot of posts lately, mainly in ‘world news’ communities, that when I investigate their source, I cannot come to any other conclostion that purposefully spreading of fake news and propaganda on lemmy.

I love this platform and want to see it thrive, but the fact that these kind of posts can so easily populate my feed is disturbing.

    have a fact-check community

    Wikipedia tries that for many years now. It works nearly perfect for easy topics, but rather terrible for the really controversial topics.
