Why does it seem like there's only cnn, nyt and abc in the feed? Can we get articles from all sides of the spectrum? I'd like to see RT, fox, aljazeera and some

- jaredwiener 6y agoThere are categories on the sidebar that you can switch between, and you can also create a (free) account and choose which sources/categories you want in a custom feed.
- Yetanfou 6y agoUsing third-party aggregators like this only adds a middle man to a process which can be easily done by yourself using something like Nextcloud News on a personal server - a SBC like a Raspberry Pi or something similar is enough for this task (and others). You get to choose exactly which sources you want to add, from The Daily Beast to The Daily Wire, from Breitbart to HuffPo, take your pick and add them. You might have to do some work to find a feed link or rig up a scraper for those sites which don't offer one but this is worth the effort. One of the big advantages of running your own aggregator is that you get to see part of the editorial process - article titles are being changed, often from 'honest' to 'biased' or 'bland', articles are first put up but dropped a few minutes later, etc. You get to see how different outlets report on the same issue without any potential filtering by a middle man.
