I used to use flipboard, then once I got hooked on Reddit I got lazy and just started getting all my news from there.
Since this place is still getting its start thought I might go back to one to supplement me. Where you guys get your news?

True true, maybe I just need a good mixture in an rss, decent aggregator + my own curated primary news sources. Tbh the thing I like best about a good aggregator is it’s kinda like Reddit, occasionally you will get a great off the wall article from a a source you would of never of followed or had on your own rss. Such as a local news for somewhere you don’t even live.
Yeah, there is nothing wrong in going through news aggregators. I just don’t find it wise to use them as the only source of news or even the primary source, like many do.
And there is also the fact that the more influential news aggregators become, the more dependent news publishers (especially the small newsrooms who struggle with readership and revenue streams) will be to them. And since the popular ones are mostly run by big tech, that’s not good anyway whatsoever.
