        This sounded good and it says it reports global news, but every story on the front page is US centric?

          It’s definitely intended for US audiences. They do long-running features on topics like the war in Gaza, and they touch on important global events like contested elections, but its perspective is rooted in progressive US politics.

        Ya, my personal fav, I try to at least watch the headlines, but usually dig into some of the featured interviews for the day. Amy Goodman is a legend

    About ten separate sources. A little bit of right, a little bit of left, some national, some international. I find this really exposes the bias some sources put on stories, and after a while you can tell which source it is just by words used in the headline and even by what news they don’t report.

    Some good suggestions in this thread, I’ll be adding some new feeds.

    The Guardian for international news because they are cool with not doing a paywall anywhere. They encourage to pay only.

    Die Zeit for German news.

    Wyborcza to stay more or less updated with my old country.

    For real time opinions I never ever go to X. Mastodon starts to be a good replacement and for something really hot that’s also hot in Europe, my mastodon search engine (https://masto.kukei.eu) sometimes does the job, although it’s still immature and often searches nothing due to the nature of mastodon.

    For any German, correctiv should be a must go to…although it’s not necessarily daily news but rather weekly and investigative journalism. Politico.eu for europeans, deutschlandfunk, Tagesschau, lemmy, reddit

    But as some people have hinted as well… Visiting news sites nowadays can only make you depressed really…

    I mostly don’t follow the news; I value my mental health too much for that these days…
