Electrek works great for me as a news aggregator for anything positive related to Tesla, that's why i at least glance at almost every article they publish. That said, i can also understand some of the criticism. Of course they may be biased towards Tesla, that's why there is a disclaimer about some of the guys owning TSLA stock for example.

I don't want to apply or demand "journalistic standards", when it comes to Electrek, since i think it's more of an opinion blog and platform for discussion. That of course limits the things i can legitimately criticize regarding their quality of work. And it's why i find some of Niedermeyers agruments inappropriate. But at the same time this also means, i sometimes dismiss what they wrote, when someone links to an article to make a point or 'to proof' something. You can have it this way or the other way around, but not both. Currently there are only 2 things that are bad when it comes to Electrek. First: They won't allow you to post links, which makes discussions much harder. I get that they probably don't have the manpower to moderate them, but it still sucks. What's worse is, that they are apparently using the Shadowban feature Disqus is offering, which i consider an invention right from hell.
