The lodestone does advertise what the game is doing, including all seasonal events, crossovers, merch, official live streams, statements from Yoshi-P, maintenance, patches and live letters. Which is normal for MMORPGs. It's true they don't normally post interviews although they did one time link to a few. It has several tabs, so you can in fact filter it like you wanted.

The lodestone is a lot more than that though. It has a database of items, quests, duties, commands and other basic things. It has a game manual, a glossary, job guides, UI guides with FAQs for new players, a new player start guide with a youtube playlist, guides for specific game systems such as PvP and the Gold Saucer, PvP and DD rankings, a character search with character data, a linkshell/CWLS search, an FC search, a community finder to just see actually active FCs, an event calendar (you can create events requiring a party on there such a PUGs or statics), blogs, activity logs of people you have a connection with, an archive of patch notes and so on.

Needless to say, English speakers ignore 99% of the lodestone features or don't even check the lodestone at all, so all of that may as well not exist. I am just saying that it does, in fact, exist.
