Does anyone know FLOSS replacements for Ground News?

I’ve seen some good things Ground News does.

Like seeing the same story under different media outlets and seeing representation of a story across the political spectrum.

I currently use RSS feed readers, I think something like what Ground is, would help organize my media at least.

This is the website: https://web.ground.news/

    I could see an alternative where the community curates and assigns the political learnings.

    But yeah, otherwise it is just a service.

          I see a lot of Marxism, Leninism and Stalinism. but people here are also more socialist in general.

          Socialiam is just people lying about communist tendencies because from each according to their ability to each accorsing to their contribution is foolish, as their output from capability is the contribution. To say otherwise is just more convoluted communism because you are juat changing the value metric on what their need is in the communist base ideaology of from each according to their ability to each according to their need.

            Can’t understand this, you’ll have to simplify.

            If you mean to say socialism is communism lite. Sure, that’s exactly what it is. That’s a good transitory model.

            Direct transition is susceptible to hijacking by fascists.

      Interesting. But even something that groups the same story under all the outlets would be great.

      So you can see different coverage of the same story. Of course it would be dynamic. You just add all the RSS feeds you want.

      Transformers models may be useful for that clustering task, if you have a ground truth and reasonable scaffold.

      Btw I don’t use Ground news, just like some of the features sponsors such as Youtubers talk about. I think getting news from a centralised service is dangerous principally, especially if proprietary/SaSS.

      But that’s just my view, I am a software engineer in a junior role.

      Perhaps someone may have done a small project for this.

      Interested if anyone knows good FLOSS solutions to this problem of multiple outlets reporting same story. (Duplication).

        You should make one. It could be fun to make.

        Since how you define something as being one political leaning over another is subjective (mostly), You could allow community to label the outlets and let it reflect current views and use feddy protocol, so you can have multiple aggregators that have different labels.
