I've done somewhat similar for the same reasons.
I realised that if I exclusively read business news I can avoid a good amount of the fluff and sensationalism. I made a browser extension which pushes the headlines from Bloomberg, Financial times Euronews Business and a few others on to my new tab from their RSS, and it's more than enough to give me a nugget of what's going on in the world without being overloaded. 1 item per new tab.
End result is: I don't read the news, but I still know what's going on without the need for Social Media's hot take.
- EffrafaxOfWug 8mo agoSounds very interesting. Have you published this extension (or the source code)? I think I would like to try it out.
- c16 8mo agoYeah, it's available here https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/start-screen-a-business-f/maacoelocidgmgllhcflcdjakihpkmjj https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/start-screen-a-busi.... Can't say it's the best extension in the world, but it scratches my own itch and I'm happy with it. Sometimes that's good enough.
