I got a lot of my headlines from reddit. Due to the impending death of my favorite app (Sync for Reddit) however, that’s coming to an end.

I’m now realising my Reddit experience had deteriorated slowly, just doomscrolling the hours away wasn’t healthy and I’m even kind of glad this is a good reason to end it. However, reddit has been really useful for news, especially the comments (taken with the right amount of skepticism) could be very informative.

I hope Lemmy builds something similar, but the defederation of beehaw’s news has been a setback.

What would be a good alternative, going forward, for getting news and backgrounds from varied, trustworthy en unbiased sources?

    I like FeedMe (Android). Syncs to my Feedly account so I can also look at the web on my desktop

      For years I’ve heard feed readers were better than reddit, I suppose now is the time to test!

        To be honest, I’ve tried a couple of times, but I miss reading comments. Some sites of course have comments but it’s not the same.
