The new fascist propaganda machine. Algorithm controlled by the GOP and Trump cronies.

Don’t blame them, when the average interaction on news sites is completely unwelcoming.
NO, YOU ARE WRONG!
My thoughts entirely. One of my favorite ironies is The Washington Post saying “Democracy Dies in Darkness” as they prevent you from reading their news article without having a subscription.
1 in 5 Americans are idiots. It’s likely much higher than that.
This is why I get my news only from Lemmy 😁
And that is the reason behind previous bans and current forced sale to US oligarchs.

My parents gets news from Wechat
So much “Taiwan Taiwan Taiwan”, “Democrats Ruin NYC” “ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT living in FREE HOTEL” 🤦♂️
Like calm down lmao, we aren’t even in China anymore, what’s the obsession with “reunification”, and like hate for dems is so weird, since their main opponent literally wants to kick us out.
And that would have been bad enough before Oracle started running the show. With Larry Ellison (a.k.a. Satan wearing a poorly tailored human meat-suit) deciding what people should be reading, it’s downright terminally moronic.
When I used Reddit I got news from there. If news sites weren’t so fucking atrocious to use I might browse them directly. Plus, it’s not like legitimate news isn’t shared on social media. AP is generally considered pretty unbiased and reliable and they have a TikTok account.
apnews.com is the only news site I visit outside of what lemmy links for me. Know what’s weird? There is SO much on there that could be linked here, but people post the same story 40 times.
The UN walkout? Beat to death, but I hadn’t seen a solid video until I went to AP. I was thinking it wasn’t such a big deal as the headlines, videos and comments made out. FFS, the best video is right there!
Please… order in the hall
I find a bigger issue for me is the lack of RSS. I refuse to subscribe to some dumb social media service simply to get links to your stories.
RSS being cut out means so many are forced to use some other bullshit just to get some semblance of a feed and that includes a whole bunch of other shit and not just what you want.
RSS will sadly die out. Like all excellent stuff from before the enshittification-of-everything like IRC or good old web 1.0 which just had information and not 25 fat-ass JavaScript frameworks and libraries and 582 trackers and more cookies than one could chew…
But news via tiktok is the (current…) Epitome of stupidness of the already stupid stupidness of news via yet another framework per se.
I miss RSS.
