Tired of HuffPost as it has become enshittified with listicles and bullshit. Makes my shit blocker extension light up like a christmas tree. And the articles have become all clickbait "so and so said this one thing that made so and so mad..." What's are some good progressive website news sourcees where I can get a good daily dose of news, that hasn't gone down the toilet?

Wat do you think of meidas?

Not sure, never watched nor read them. They seem to be focused a lot on Trump specifically, and his personal failings rather than solid materialist analysis.

They're sort of a left wing fox news replacement, I agree they can be a bit much but i do think they're nexessary and fill an important opposite of niche

Ah, gotcha.
