I get my news via RSS. I am currently using The National (a Scottish paper) as my main source, but I’m uncertain of the quality of the writing, and the number of articles imported from USA Today irks me a little. I have also tried The Guardian, i, The Scotsman, Edinburgh Evening News, Sky News, and of course BBC News; however I moved away from these for various reasons.
So, in the interest if improving my feed, what papers do you all read?
I’m currently evaluating Kagi News. They have an RSS feed for each category, so you can define what you want to get news about. It merges the same news from multiple sources into one and gives a nice overview with links to all sources.
And it only updates once a day which simulates getting a classic newspaper. So you don’t end up checking your newsreader all day long.
Don’t know they did news. Thanks for the heads up.
It’s all AI generated though isn’t it?
The original sources are not, of course. But Kagi News are AI-summaries. However, because every source is linked, you can easily search the original articles for more details.
If you aren’t just looking for “news of the day”, The Ferret is a good source for Scotland-based investigative journalism.
I’m afraid “news of the day” is exactly what I’m looking for, but The Ferret looks rather good. Definitely going to add it to my FreshRSS.
For my daily bitter pill of updates from Burgerland, I get the WTFJHT email. When I’m really on the ball, I skim the Wikipedia current events page and read up on anything I don’t recognise.
I don’t.
Gosh, quite a varied picture from me: RSS feeds via a self-hosted Miniflux instance. Mostly get defense related updates here. Paid subscription to a couple of defense insider blogs too, which come through via RSS.
Apple News for the day to day - my wife subscribes so have a subscription through our family account.
Jyllands-Posten (subscription) & DR, SVT, NRK for Scandinavian news. BBC and Guardian (which I used to pay for, but have stopped) for U.K. news.
