Humans evolved to pay close attention to danger, but today that instinct is being overwhelmed by an endless supply of bad news from around the world. Researchers say the answer isn’t to stop following current events—it’s to build healthier habits around how, when, and where we get our news.

I've largely stopped actively following news because

most of it is stuff we knew already
I already find out all that I need to know and more involuntarily through occasional social media visits

I'd like to read summaries of a given week's news on the world, EU, national, and maybe local level once a week, tho. I'll check if there's anything like this for the world and EU scale and report back here if there is.
