Hello! I’m looking for help in finding ways to stay up to date with News “of the World” in the modern age. Having de-Googled (and, therefore, abandoned Google News), I find it hard to track what is going on outside of links posted to Lemmy/Mastodon (my only social media), and have no subscriptions to any streaming channels and no cable TV. I’m hoping someone can help me find a way to subscribe/watch enough news that I can stay properly informed. (For context, I am living in the US but believe I should be aware of activities in the rest of the World as we all undoubtedly impact each other.)
My goals are:
- “Watch” topics in particular (ex: Tech, Science, Politics, LGBTQ+ rights, etc.).
- Discover new items of interest based on my current interests.
- Reputable sources that at least attempt to be unbiased (especially those that cite respectably, such as academic publications and the like).
- Prefer FOSS solutions.
- Multiple (even dissenting) opinions are enjoyable.
I am a learned man and value knowledge, open-mindedness, objective truth, and perspective. Any suggestions are eagerly encouraged. Thank you all.
AP and Reuters are unbiased, but that’s because they are news agencies. They are not journalistic media, which means they often don’t provide context to what they talk about (which is only fine if you already know the topic) and you won’t find any in-depth stories, investigative journalism, explainers, etc
Apnews.com is their journalistic side.
