Quick-flip cards for skimming through today's news, one story at a time.
Quick-flip cards for skimming through today's news, one story at a time.
Pick what you want to read about, and who you want to hear it from.
Cards are drawn from the topics you turn on.
Hidden wherever they turn up — a Top Stories feed carries sport and showbiz whether you asked for them or not. Muting a subject you follow removes it from your topics too.
Balanced mode deals the deck so left, centre and right stories alternate instead of arriving in clumps.
Lean the deck if you want to. Even at the ends the other side keeps a share — switch outlets off below if you really want them gone.
Ratings summarise how media-bias raters describe each outlet's usual framing. They are a starting point, not a verdict on any one story.
Paste a site or an RSS link. If you give it a site, briefly looks for the feed itself. Nothing is added until the feed has been fetched and read. This is also how you add an X or Instagram account. Neither has a feed of its own — X put reading behind a paid tier and Instagram withdrew the API that could read a timeline — so both need a bridge URL (rss.app, an RSSHub instance) for one public account, filed under Voices on X or Instagram. Your own home timeline is not reachable by any route, official or otherwise.
Nothing read yet.
One meter across everything averages left-leaning politics and right-leaning business into "balanced". A blind spot lives in one subject at a time.
Six questions on the week you just read.
Everything still in the table — about a week. Your topics, mutes and read history are ignored here.
Stories you bookmarked. They are kept even after they age out of the deck.
How the app itself is doing.
Newest first. Kept even after the story ages out of the deck.
