ArsTechnica, baby
I know they're owned by CondΓ© Nast, but they seem to genuinely maintain a good deal of journalistic independence

I am proud subscriber since many years and I can say without a doubt the overall best tech/science news page and even most importantly "community". Like the comments in each article add so much entertainment and knowledge, often I gind myself reading more comments than news on Ars. So many smart commentors it's really a good place.
Tomβs hardware is still good.
Thanks
Hackaday is pretty good
i usually browse lemmy, hackernews and the register.
What do you mean? Websites in general?
Well, I guess Alexandrite.app is my favourite website... IDK...
Sorry, I meant news, forgot about it
I use alternativeto.net quite frequently when looking for an app. To see if there are better alternatives, and to find open source apps
I don't have it bookmarked any more, but Slashdot is the grand-daddy of them all, and still going strong. Unlike Ars Technica, I can't vouch for it's comments being quite as informative or interesting (not for a few decades now)
my tech news sites are slashdot, hacker news, phoronix, techdirt (although they are mostly a political site now but their source linking is phenomenal), fedscoop (entirely US based, also more political than tech now and possibly a psyop) and reddit with an account that has a very selective set of followed subreddits to try and avoid the slow and continual decay of dead reddit.
The Verge
Techpowerup
Verge is meh
I think they're okay. I like their video content.
I think their RSS content struggles, doesn't look good
news tech
Not a lot of sites advertising broadcaster vans and steadycams.
Did you mean "tech news", or maybe something with punctuation?
Yes
