When I was on in Reddit I used to do it all the time, but writing everything out, organizing it and including citations etc. can be rather time-intensive.
These days, I’ll leave a quick comment on a post if I have enough time, but nothing major.

That’s why I like MBFC. It’s a lot of effort, and even if I don’t agree with them on everything, it gives an idea.

Just don’t take it too seriously, I would say. Not every news piece from the same source is going to be of the same quality or bias.

Yeah, I don’t take it as hard facts, and the bias especially I take with a grain of salt. I think the fact checking reliability part is more important (but also not perfect).
