    There has been significantly more of such posts in recent weeks 🤷

    And posting lobby outlet press releases with zero commentary is discuraged regardless of the actual topic.

    And yes, this community got momentum (despite multiple attempts to discredit the moderators here) because we actually curate it, and I plan to continue doing so.

      OK I agree we don’t want to be flooded with it.

      And posting lobby outlet press releases with zero commentary is discuraged regardless of the actual topic.

      That is very understandable and I absolutely agree on that.

      because we actually curate it, and I plan to continue doing so.

      Which is appreciated.
      BUT I feel like you still evaded my original question, but let’s just leave it here.

      Where do you draw the line between ‘lobby outlet’ and ‘trade journal’?

        Most trade journal posts would also fall into the not of general interest category.

          I’m not sure if I’d agree. An article published in a trade journal (‘Fachzeitschrift’) about the results of a climate change study or renewable energy could also very well be of general interest for the public in Europe, don’t you think?
