Google News is filled with spam and cheap attention grabbing garbage these days IMO. It’s also highly targeted leading to a bubble. But I agree with both of you

Google News is filled with spam and cheap attention grabbing garbage these days IMO. It’s also highly targeted leading to a bubble. But I agree with both of you otherwise!
- pengaru 5y agoI only view the main page with js disabled, but agree the quality has diminished since its earlier years. Castrating its use of js still retains visibility into the major headlines via the main page at least.
- ethbr0 5y ago> highly targeted leading to a bubble I wish there were automation scripts one could leave running that literally just expanded ones bubble back to objective normalcy.
- themacguffinman 5y agoI don't really understand where this comes from, if you're skimming the news periodically then the "Headlines" mobile app tab (or the "Top Stories" section in the website) is actually un-personalized. Google News explicitly pushes personalization in the separate and aptly named "For You" section.
