Nice. I use Allsides.com. it's a nonprofit org with no incentive to be biased. Very short summaries by topic and even tells you how each topic is being covered by the propoganda media. It's the only us fed news source I have in my rss feed collection.

Never understood the reason for RSS bots and communities like this when there are already a ton of services and rss readers that do this already. This just makes Lemmy more spammy since the posts in these communities get federated in every instance. It also pollutes Lemmy search results, making it harder for people who want to find real discussions.

Yeah companies try to be fancy with these JavaScript heavy applications using React when sites work perfectly fine without all that stuff.

Right, and what's even as bizarre to me (as an engineer) is that they're bots posing as people.

That's arguably the most deceptive and malicious way to use a bot on a site meant for real people.

But they'll quickly block any helpful bots anyone else tries to integrate on the platform.

"Our bad bots good, your good bots bad". What a crazy world we live in.
