    I am 50/50.

    It’s link free, and while citing a few details, mostly vague with a suspicious format.

    But sfg.media seems to have a real history; it’s not an SEO farm:

    SFG Media was launched in 2022 by a small group of Kyiv-based journalists and volunteers during the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It identifies as a non-commercial, non-registered media collective run by six individuals. According to their About page, they publish English-language content primarily to offer independent Ukrainian perspectives to international audiences. While not a formally registered media outlet, they describe their work as journalism reflecting their “social and political position.”

    And the point the article makes is pretty reasonable.

    I’d feel a whole lot better if they link citations like the ISW or Wikipedia. And I know that can be a slop pattern too, but it’s still good practice these days.
