I strive to only read news that I pay for and I think that info gaps are a risk worth taking to maintain my mental health.
I only subscribe to weeklies. I no longer see much value in daily news.

I guess every blog infrequently emitting posts can count as weekly news too, you don't even need to aggregate anything. RSS definitely helps to keep everything in one place though
I'll open up HN on my phone when I'm waiting around - to see what people are talking about. Since I can't click on the referenced articles (I white-list URLs on my iPhone), I only read the comments and not the referenced article. But even on my desktop where I don't white-list, I rarely open the referenced article. I can get a tl;dr from reading comments even if there wasn't an explicit tl;dr comment.
HN has an awesome and open API so that certainly would be possible to create a weekly summary. And if it existed, I certainly would use it.
