Don't get too excited, this is a pretty fringe theory that doesn't really have experimental evidence. They were able to make some observations fit with their theory without dark matter yes, but not all of them. The tired light part in particular has a lot of contradictions with observation that they don't explain.

So interesting, but far from definitive.

These type of comments always throw me through a loop.

Scientist:

Makes hypothesis, does analysis, writes paper, and presents work for other academics to review.

Lemmy poster:

Logs into lemmy. Posts "i think not mr scientist". Recieves upvotes.

While I would certainly like to say I understood any of this. This post has not met any rigorous standard of debunking the researchers findings.

It's fine if you have knowledge on this particular subject but it kinda seems like you're just throwing shade.

Thats not what the posting claimed to be. You missunderstand. Either intentionally or just as a fact.
