If you hide all the posts.....

With AI content - video or graphic (cartoons)
With breathless, over-enthusiasic so-called news video
With unverified news sources
With content from aggregators not with a direct link

There's not much left in GD.

Here's what I propose:

Go to the GD post list page.
Look at each of the 50 posts in that list.
Copy the post title from each one that fits your description and paste it into a post of your own.
When you've looked at all 50 posts and followed those steps, post your list of post titles that fit your description in this thread.

I think you'll find that it's not that large a percentage, really.

But, I stand ready to see your list of posts that meet your criteria.
