Regardless of the kind of news. I'm working on a TLDR bot and I'd like it to support the most used sites on Lemmy.

Of the big ones I prefer Reuters and APnews

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 5 points 2 years ago

Support for both added, it should work when I release the bot.

[-] xyzinferno@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Pretty much the main two that I use as well lmao

[-] whileloop@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago

The Economist, Reuters, BBC, in no particular order.

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 3 points 2 years ago

Reuters and BBC were already done. It seems that Economist requires a subscription or at least registration? I'm afraid I can't help with that.

There is a lot of washington post, NY times and the guardian articles on here. Thanks for the awesome work!

Not my most-frequented, but definitely the one I admire most:

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 3 points 2 years ago

My bot now supports it!

[-] MrMobius@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 years ago

I generally get my global news from BBC world news. They're pretty professional, to the point without getting sensational. Euronews is pretty good too, with a bit more focus on European events obviously. You just have to be aware they've sold their soul to Qatar. Other than that they're unbiased too.

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 3 points 2 years ago

Both are already supported in my bot! Didn't know the thing about Qatar, it sucks.

[-] MrMobius@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

Well, I understand they have to pay for the real journalist work. So you'll occasionally see a piece about how awesome it is to get married in Qatar! If you can see through the underhanded deals, it's not a big deal. Just don't count of them mentioning human rights issues about foreign workers' working conditions in the construction sector.

Improvethenews is a collection of all news sources and provides all sides of an argument. This is one of the best news aggregators.

[-] ougi@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

this is what I saw from the first thing I tapped lol. If this is the “best”, I weep for the worst.

[-] ivenoidea@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I for one am shocked that a site that pretty much positions itself as the lead centrists has shit takes.

[-] cll7793@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

It's very sad indeed that this is the "best". The only thing better would probably be specific youtubers who go get news sources for themselves. But I'm not aware of many.

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 2 points 2 years ago

I'm afraid that won't work, the autotldr bot doesn't really work with aggregators like this, it pretty much only works on articles.

I use CBC.ca and ctvnews.ca for Canadian news.

Take a look at the Media Bias Chart (adfontesmedia.com) and you can find the top quality news sources.

[-] darcy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

i mostly use bruh.news for everyday news, but it doesnt have the political articles like the Trustworthy Times

[-] DosDude@retrolemmy.com 4 points 2 years ago

No cookies gives a Rick roll instead of showing the site for bruh.news. No thanks.

[-] i_do_not_agree@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

If you accept cookies it will also show you rick roll

[-] darcy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

set useragent to bruhnews and it should work

apparently its an ongoing bug with the website

[-] sma3in@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

not a website but a news aggregator app created by Instagram founders "Artifact"

[-] utopianrevolt@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

out of curiosity: do you feel compelled to move over to open-source, non-algorithmic based news aggregation?

[-] sma3in@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

sounds interesting to me, I would definitely give it a try. artifact is not open source and it's AI powered. It seems to do a better job than a lot of news aggregators I tried before

[-] utopianrevolt@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

do you use android or ios?

[-] sma3in@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago
[-] utopianrevolt@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

if you have f-droid, try Feeder. you basically set up your own sources and categories.

NBC, CBS, BBC, Axios, Reuters, and APNews. I ditched CNN a while ago. Just as long as they're not conservative, and I carefully look at whether they're corporate or not and make my take based on that.

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 2 points 2 years ago

Most of those were already supported by the bot, I added CBS and sadly I couldn't make Axios work with the bot.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

googled it to see if it was some new site, lol it's the Guardian.

[-] stooovie@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

It's an old joke, Guardian was known for insane amount of typos

[-] Nemo@slrpnk.net 3 points 2 years ago

Block Club Chicago

I was a founding donor back when they got started.
