Do you look up the safety history of all your potential rides, or just focus on recent headlines?

Airplane crashes are rare, and it's quite easy to remember some unique plane crashes (like I would also not fly in a Concorde). With Boeing MAX right now there is definitely some bad decisions they made safety wise, and it be not surprising that there were other tradeoffs made also.

Why not both? It's not that hard.

The real question isn't whether the autists on HN will be researching every flight they schedule, it's how many Average Joes will care. Short answer: to a close approximation, zero.
