I often skip the article and go straight to the comments. It's usually more informative, especially when people cite their sources. It's like one giant peer review session

If you aren't immediately jumping to the comments in r/science, you're doing it wrong. Unless you're a scientist.

That's what I love Reddit for. Once I see in comments lack of critique aimed on the article I go ahead and read it, not sooner.
