I got a lot of my headlines from reddit. Due to the impending death of my favorite app (Sync for Reddit) however, that’s coming to an end.

I’m now realising my Reddit experience had deteriorated slowly, just doomscrolling the hours away wasn’t healthy and I’m even kind of glad this is a good reason to end it. However, reddit has been really useful for news, especially the comments (taken with the right amount of skepticism) could be very informative.

I hope Lemmy builds something similar, but the defederation of beehaw’s news has been a setback.

What would be a good alternative, going forward, for getting news and backgrounds from varied, trustworthy en unbiased sources?

    I use an app called Artifact that aggregates news from many sources into a FYP and categories. There’s even comments for each article.

      @Radicalized I saw some articles on artifact bearing the sign ‘rewritten using an AI’ and backed out of using the app to avoid that

        If I can ask: what are your concerns about AI?

        You’ll have a harder and harder time avoiding AI content over even the next few months. ~14% of Americans have tried GPT directly, and nearly 85% use apps with AI integrated directly into the app (whether they know it or not).

        The folks who put a disclaimer on their articles are at least trying to be transparent about it. But maybe you know something I don’t about AI content, so I figure I’d ask.
