Yikes. Yikes yikes yikes. Try to look for news sources a little more diverse than Reddit, please.



Yup, once I saw that I noped on out of this nonsensical framework. Someone is missing many clues about who is tracking what for whom...


Yep, just saw this [0] yesterday. A "powermod" posted a misleading title and nobody removed it. Yikes is definitely the correct response.

I'm not saying it's better or worse than Google News but people should know the place's bias and bring a healthy dose of salt and actually read the articles. I'm only viewing it as a list of things that happened.

Have you used them? These are mainstream subreddits, and the stories aggregated there aren't substantially different than the stories linked to to the similar Google News categories.


As someone not from a NATO country, the discussions on r/worldnews have been pretty disappointing about anything outside of NATO. The news stories upvoted there suffer from similar problems.
