Ty! Will have to look into it some! My problem is I don't have any specific preferred news sites already so I guess I'll be just spamming big ones til it gets sorted out a bit? I'd also like to keep it as balanced as possible, if not just to be prepared for potential points of conflict to be knowledgeable on.
I’ve been using Flipboard since 2012 and with the ebb and flow of how news is consumed over the last 12 years I think Flipboard has stayed true to its original goal, a simple news aggregator app . I remember when they first introduced ads into the app I was almost turned off, but the ads ended up being formatted similar to the news article so they weren’t intrusive to my experience.
There’s been a few news sources that are garbage but I just mute them and never see them in my feed. I think after 12 years the app has figured out my interests xD
I also read a lot of news in Spanish and the app does a good job of including non-US publications
Sounds decent enough! I am not hardcore against ads; I know platforms and publications need to pay somehow. If they're non-intrusive, I don't mind seeing them. Thanks for the info!
