A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

True, but think of the potential. With $1M in hand you could buy a modest house in most places outright, a decent car, and have enough left to make some investments, maybe start a business, go to school, have enough buffer to be a well established resident supporting the schools and shops...

If these people could see further than the color of their own skin we could be using those funds to see society boosted significantly.
