Yeah self-hosting stuff like RSSHub is the best way. If you want a quick solution the demo of this works up to 1,000 feeds. https://www.commafeed.com/ Which of course, nobody would ever reach, so don't ask how I know.
Try making an RSS feed and sticking to offbeat or informative sources (avoid AFP, AP, Reuters, Western mainstream media as a whole, or reactionary media anywhere, whatever they say which is actually important will be repeated elsewhere). I can imagine why Telegram and Lemmy would bother you, as many people get invested in a particular interpretation or prediction. This makes it a lot more stressful to figure out what's going on.
90% of piracy is technically savvy workers taking back something they produced for a tiny fraction of what it was worth, often something which was abandoned, or people stealing movies. Yes, there are teenagers who will pirate indie games. Most of them didn't have the money for them anyways.
If piracy wasn't possible I would probably be against computers entirely
Upvoted out of spite. Please don't ever say I want the approval of Lemmy users again. That's just beyond the pale, man. I can't think of anything more offensive than being called "spiritually Israeli". 90% of the things people downvote on here are perfectly fine and it's a puzzle to me to figure out what pissed people off. I think maybe they have really unhappy lives.
I just feel strongly that it is polite to volunteer the unwritten rules of social engagement to other people. I'm not some kind of internet law fetishist like these people. Your insult will never be forgiven...
Actually it's a pretty deeplt embedded human quality to tell other people to act right, read the room, familiarize themselves with context, otherwise they're gonna do it to thousands more unfortunate people. Pay it forward: tell people to shut up when they have nothing to say. It's not really a big deal, man. There are different social rules when we are in an aggregation space, as in trying to help each other cut the wheat from the chaff informationally, and what you're asking could just as easily be put into search. Since we're on the computer.
tl;dr Lemmy is for being a hater
There's always been a proportionate response.
We all get more out of the internet if we value each other's time.
Yes, these guys are just giving you the quick overview. The enemy is colonialism, which has transformed into the neocolonial financial system. This includes all the core countries like USA, Israel, Western Europe, Japan, Canada, South Korea, and Australia: together they control the world's banks, international legal bodies, high-tech manufacturing, as well as the academic and journalistic training and distribution systems.
So the problem is actually much deeper than a few bad sources. The most valuable fields of study have been twisted by capitalism or basically just destroyed. Just take a look at how they've been dealing with climate change. Just because dealing with negative externalities on a business or society level is unprofitable or political suicide, we've been treating it like it can't be mitigated by constraints on manufacturing, and new solutions can't be invented. The Guardian has been posting the same stupid crap about spraying sulfur into the atmosphere for decades, and until recently they pretended investing in green energy + vehicles + industry could never be made profitable.
Interesting, I haven't seen the "pure AP" thing, will check it out. Yeah I'm not attached to any particular model of it, since there are pros and cons of each, and they have the same basic structure (communities on lemmy appear as users reposting whatever mentions them, you could represent imageboard communities the same way, etc etc). Hopefully people evolve beyond just imitating popular social media products.
