    I’ll throw down a recommendation for ground news (app). They take the news, organize it and show you the same article from left center and right. They show you your blind spots in news as well (stuff that is on the other side of you).

    Anyone have anything against it or other recommendations?

      I’ve found ground news to have a right slant. Both the owner and developer have traditionally right leaning interests. I don’t find the stories that get “promoted” to the front of ground ot be all that neutral.

      I could be talking out my ass, but after trying to use ground for a few weeks, I felt that I was seeing more and more right wing talking points than what I consider neutral news.

    I kinda like to block political memes too but I’m keeping them around for now since Lemmy doesn’t have enough content so I’ll just downvote but still browse all. This one gets points in my book for being meta, unspecific, and not being a screenshot of another social media site that I’m not on specifically because I don’t want to see that shit.
