Hi there, looking for an alternative to news.google.com that just simply isn't a Google product. I know it's not open source per say, but just curious.

What about creating your newsfeed by getting some rss feed in a reader ? You could then get updated by your main sources

yeah rss is great, esp if you can sync it with devices, like nextcloud reader or tt-rss

also if a site doesn't have an obvious rss feed, open the source with f12 and search for rss or atom

Happy to see RSS coming back. I remember when twitter got popular that people were worried it would replace RSS with a centralized service.
