Original Summary

I noticed something weird about my news habits. I'd open a news app to catch up on what's happening, spend 30 minutes jumping between headlines, and somehow leave feeling less informed than when I started. The problem wasn't that I needed more news. I needed to actually understand what I'd already read. So I built Know7, a daily news app with a slightly unusual idea: What if the news had an ending? Instead of an infinite feed, your daily briefing contains just 7 stories: - 5 important stories from around the world. - 2 stories based on your interests. - Around 7 minutes to get through them. But the part I care most about isn't the summaries. Each story explains what happened, why it matters, what's confirmed versus disputed, how different people or institutions see the event, and where the information came from. And when you've finished your seven stories, you're done for the day. You can explore more if you want. But the app doesn't treat endless scrolling as the goal. There's one question I keep coming back to, though. Who gets to decide which seven stories matter? Even with multiple sources and different perspectives, choosing what to include is itself a decision that can introduce bias. I'm genuinely interested in what people think about that trade-off. Would you prefer a news app that gives you seven carefully selected stories and a stopping point, or one that lets you browse everything and decide for yourself? I made the complete daily briefing free, and you don't need an account. If you're curious, it's available on Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.keyrox.know7 I'd especially love to hear from people who've tried to cut down on doomscrolling without completely disconnecting from the world.   submitted by   /u/piphunter101 [link]   [comments]
