SPIDR – News aggregator

Love the implementation and the UI - excellent job on using screen estate and best practices like small sticky header. Such information density while still looking modern is rare!

However I can't help but notice how much this shows just how meaningless and toxic news have become (or always have been).

About every single tile seems to be either

* boxed emotions, mostly in form of a dramatic two digit body count without even hinting at the underlying causes or why this should interest me other than because "oh my good poor people".

* statements of opinion by people who are highly paid to write such pieces, which may have some value as a Litmus test for the general-general relationship of entities X and Y, again while completely failing to convey relevance or context.

What do I gain from this, besides a faux warm feeling in the chest that I'm now an "informed voter" or something?

It may be too late but it would be nice to replace the URL with the https://spidr.today/ variant.

Been wishing for something like this for a long time One day we’ll hopefully have the AI synthesize a précis that takes all its sources into account.
