I got a lot of my headlines from reddit. Due to the impending death of my favorite app (Sync for Reddit) however, that’s coming to an end.
I’m now realising my Reddit experience had deteriorated slowly, just doomscrolling the hours away wasn’t healthy and I’m even kind of glad this is a good reason to end it. However, reddit has been really useful for news, especially the comments (taken with the right amount of skepticism) could be very informative.
I hope Lemmy builds something similar, but the defederation of beehaw’s news has been a setback.
What would be a good alternative, going forward, for getting news and backgrounds from varied, trustworthy en unbiased sources?
Is there an RSS reader with built in comment sections?
No, that’s kind of antithetical to how rss works.
The RSS protocol is basically just a list of links. So each content producer publishes their own list, to which people subscribe. Comments stay in their respective communities.
For example, you could have an rss feed from a reddit sub, and another from a lemmy community, and another from a newspaper.
Of course you could build an app with its own comment section, but as I said that would kind of undermine the elegance of RSS.
