I have used YouTube, Reddit and Mastodon for news related to certain topics. Now I want to be more independent in finding my own news sources. However, there are so many sources on the internet I wouldn’t know where to begin to find them by myself.

Consult one of these two media bias charts and this fact check bias chart. Decide for yourself which of those sources you want to follow.
One of the media bias charts is put together by AllSides, I donate a yearly subscription to them for their website which is great.
Shows all the important news stuff from left, center, and right sources so you can see the headlines and how things are spun, make up your own mind.
I’d also discourage just picking news from the center. You’ll miss a lot, as understanding the left viewpoint and right viewpoint are important for a holistic picture.
Which sources on the right are not just heavily biased and full of hyperbole?
