“Apple News underrepresents made-up “news”, according to - checks notes - this study we’ve made up.”

In what world does the FTC have any jurisdiction over Apple News?
X certifiably promotes CSAM and ultra right propaganda and they don’t seem to care.

Literally, ‘rule by rapists’ or ‘rule by those who violently sieze’.
… i find it to be a bit more cutting and able to be said more venemously than ‘pedocracy’.
The only thing I miss is the comments, but I’ve got Lemmy for that.

Comments: that thing where you upvote what you like and downvote what you dislike, and if you feel strongly, say the same thing 10 other people said in different words. Very important. Very necessary.
Honestly a sidebar with a chat like IRC, but every message being tagged by which specific article its author is viewing right now, would help the social part more.
I mean, Telegram’s convenience is a weapon. If you want a good UI for article feeds with comments, it should just copy Telegram. Except for the Russian intelligence services part.
You’re not wrong, but I agree with the person above you. I have an RSS feed but whenever something really stirs my interest I generally want to share it with someone and get their takes on it. Genuine discussion, even if it’s vanishingly rare, is still something I crave.
Exactly - comments are what you make of them. In high traffic communities they do indeed degrade into echo chambers as the poster above you suggested, but IMHO that attitude is throwing the baby out with the bath water. I find comments useful to gauge public opinion on current events, or have more nuanced discussion about special interests.
It’s more an issue of communities than it is comments.

As the poster above, I should clarify that the reason I mentioned Telegram is that there a channel (like a blog) has a representation as a group chat where channel posts, comments to them and simple group chat messages appear.
And about communities and issues - the problem with comments is that they are local to post. Separation by posts first, then separation by threads, separation by score ranks, separation by depth. That may seem like a nice idea to not see everything. That’s the very problem.
OK, so the data model wouldn’t have to be changed to make it in good sense like Telegram.
What you need is ability to have a linear representation, where every message is additionally marked as a comment to some post or as a reply or as a post itself, and might have scores.
Like old forums usually were, tree representation wasn’t very popular.

I want to make a set up of RSS to pull stories and ollama to summarize them into a daily newspaper.
Last time I tried RSS bare there’s so much cruft because all sites put out a ton of SEO garbage hoping for ad revenue and google sempai to notice them that I need something to wade through the garbage.

Yeah I use OpenAI to summarize the feeds. Really cuts down on the crap.
Let’s not forget bribing sHitler with shiny golden shit. Tim will bend over for tRump for sure. https://www.macrumors.com/2025/08/07/tim-cook-gift-to-trump/
I can’t even blame Tim Apple for this one. If I knew I could bribe a total idiot with a trinket and get what I want worth way more in return, I’d probably do it too.
When a felon rapist changes your last name for you and you don’t do anything about it.
Full name should be The Coward Tim Apple.

I don’t know if you’re ready to hear this, but international trust in US news was in the shitter before 9/11 and got flushed after 9/11.
Or did everyone forget the lies about Iraq having weapons of mass destruction repeated breathlessly by US media without question?
