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.
RSS feeds is probably what you are looking for, create a group of your favorite news sources, most of the sites have them. I like feeder browser addon for Firefox.
