      Wow you can use Lemmy as an RSS feed? Will these posts overpower local stuff though?

      Hopefully me clicking on these won't mean the all view on my instance is now completely overtaken by this stuff...

      Depends on exactly which ones you subscribe to. I sub'd to the Guardian and was immediately overwhelmed.

        I got a local loud mouth who listens to Infowars

        I just assume the opposite of what he says is true. So far it's working

            Not a news source, but commentary. I watch/listen to breaking points https://www.youtube.com/@breakingpoints

            they cite drop site news frequently https://www.dropsitenews.com/

            and I read Ken Klippenstein https://www.kenklippenstein.com/

              Personally I love PBS/NPR (both National and my local station; support your local station!), The Verge, TWiT/This Week in Tech, Daily Tech News Show, Democracy Now!, C4 News, and Web3 is Going Great.

                Hmm, not sure how they did it. To my knowledge that is only an upcoming feature although now that I think about it I somewhat remember that it was already partially available in the current release backend but not exposed in the UI or so πŸ€”

                Cool so it is possible. Seems like a good solution to the problem of automated communities that put out a lot of posts.

                  I do my local national public radio every day. Great local coverage and balanced fact driven national coverage. I have donated to them for a decade now. No regrets

                    Roca News @ridethenews is my go to but I've tuned most things out at this point to try and stay sane.

                      Lemmy and the google news feed. Sometimes my family members.

                        I try to stick to AP/Reuters. They tend to be more direct and less wordy. BBC, sometimes Guardian, NYT, and other news sources follow.

                          The BBC, AP, and Reuters are a good place to start.

                          I like Erin in the Morning, Propublica, and Bellingcat as well, but they require additional work to parse sometimes.

                            Democracy now is doing excellent coverage of palestine.
                            Also the majority report.

                                My local government news. Call me a sheep but since they don't farm clicks they seem to have the most nuanced and engaging stories. For-profit news these days are just doom-posting and rage bait.

                                  I don't follow news. If it's big enough, it will reach me some or the other way.

                                      Curious what they are and how you manage the incoming?

                                      I have been trying to curate my list and they're all very chatty. I end up struggling to stay on top of it even just dismissing articles I won't read, let alone reading a significant percentage.

                                        I organize them into lists and start with the most relevant ones. Use filters to remove spam as best I can. Then skim the titles. Not every publication is pushing 30 articles/day. I won't claim to read all of them.

                                          @bigboismith You're probably referring to some sort of public broadcaster, right? That's actually quite a good source if the management is not politically controlled/infiltrated in any way by any political party
