What websites/apps/whatever do you use to get your news?
https://www.improvethenews.org/
This is a free news aggregator and news analysis site developed by a group of researchers at MIT and elsewhere to improve your access to trustworthy news. Many website algorithms push you (for ad revenue) into a filter bubble by reinforcing the narratives you impulse-click on. By understanding other people’s arguments, you understand why they do what they do – and have a better chance of persuading them.
This just replaced ground news for me, very nice.
TikTok mostly, a few SoMe Journalists I follow, like Under The Desk News and Lisa Ren Millard. But also Google News for more wide coverage.
I see you’re getting downvoted even though you respectfully answered the question, looks like the Reddit tradition of downvoting anything you disagree with to bury it is alive and well here on Lemmy
Yeah, nothing ever changes. People are assholes for the most part.
I don’t get how people don’t understand that down voting for stuff like this is not good for the communities overall health.
OP asked a question, and you answered it. You weren’t shilling, so what’s the issue?
Yep, doesn’t really surprise me anymore. If I cared about votes I might care, but I’d have to value the down voters opinion for it to matter to me, and I really don’t.
TikTok mostly
No judgement, but I would be very, very careful about getting the majority of your news from TikTok.
Under the Desk news focuses on subjects that matter to me, and Lisa is dead center. So I am carful, but thank you. Also, like I said, I don’t just use those two sources for my news.
The guardian
I used to like them but they are a bit too biased for me nowadays

Left, center, and right. Shows all sides.
It shows “all sides” from a distinctly far-right perspective.
Shameless plug, c/moderate_politics :)
