Thousands of words to say:
- cosmic voids are real but not actually empty, just lower density than average
- pop science articles sometimes mistakenly use pictures of Bok globules to represent voids
This is probably one of the lowest signal-to-noise ratios I have ever seen.

Contrary to popular opinion, the "verbosity void" of the article is not a hopeless expanse without any useful information at all; it just has a much lower density than average.
nyuk nyuk
Anyhow it barely touched on dark matter... Like, are the voids themselves where the dark matter is, or is it spread out, um, orthogonally?

I found the article quite interesting and informative. Your tl;dr does not accurately describe it.
- cosmic voids are real but not actually empty, just lower density than average
- pop science articles sometimes mistakenly use pictures of Bok globules to represent voids
This is probably one of the lowest signal-to-noise ratios I have ever seen.
