    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.

    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!

      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.

    1 in 5 Americans are idiots. It’s likely much higher than that.
