Great imagery, very compelling, very humanizing. Excellent reporting.
Terrible title, terrible thumbnail, nobody’s going to look at this
What’s wrong with the title and thumbnail?
It’s not clear from the title what the article is about, so most people skip it cuz it’s not relevant to them.
The thumbnails just a little black square. It’s not gripping either.
So if you see this article in a feed of other related content, you’ll click on it.
But in the lemmy feed, it doesn’t give you enough information to know the content, so I suspect most people will skip it.
Once you open it and read it, and understand the context, it’s very powerful. But in terms of getting people into the article funnel it’s not going to do a great job
Fair enough. That being said, this was a really good infographic and I recommend people check it out.
I have no idea what it’s about, so I’m not clicking it. That’s the issue. (I don’t really care, I’m just answering your question).
I wonder if this will work out like last time.
unless there’s a fast way of inscribing names into stone, probably not.
Last time the names of “Civilian” killed were released and online people started looking them up and seeing if they were part of Hamas. It started becoming a problem because they’d say things like, “Strike X killed 8 innocent civilians” and then a few weeks later they’d get asked why they categorized such and such as a civilian because he was a mber of Quassam etc… So they stopped releasing names.
It shouldn’t stop us and we should honour Palestinian civilian casualties (no one cares about Hamas) with a wall of pictures, just as the Israeli do. It humanises them and also, attaching a name and face to a victim helps us to feel more empathy.
Everybody’s talking about numbers, let’s see their faces, hopes and dreams. The least we can do.
oh, I gotcha. I misunderstood the implication.
Source?
Unfortunately I don’t have the source for that easily reachable. It used to be a Google search away but all the keywords have been clogged by the most recent conflict.
I’ll have to do some more digging to see if I can find it.
Does lemmy have a remind me bot?
No idea but to be honest a remind me bot would be really great as a feature. I just might make one if there isn’t one already.
