    This is a free news aggregator and news analysis site developed by a group of researchers at MIT and elsewhere to improve your access to trustworthy news. Many website algorithms push you (for ad revenue) into a filter bubble by reinforcing the narratives you impulse-click on. By understanding other people’s arguments, you understand why they do what they do – and have a better chance of persuading them.

      Holy shit that’s awesome. This may become my goto when linking stories to the Fediverse.

      I’m sorry but it’s just not doing anything it say it does. When I click on world news out of the first 20 headlines 18 were about USA (which are like domestic stuff). One about Sudan and one about Korea. What kind of algorithm is that?
