ALT “Including highlights solves the commentary-is-hard problem because it intrinsically tells your friends which idea(s) inspired you to share the story, and it gives those same friends a quick look into the story itself without requiring that they leave their feeds.” from “Fake Reading Opened the Door for Fake News.” by Andrew Courter.
