    It’s not that we don’t care about the news, it’s that the current news landscape doesn’t offer any options that are trustworthy and accessible. I can’t compare sources and alternative perspectives on an article if 90% of the news websites throw up a paywall at me. That leaves the free websites to public service and the most sensationalist junk. That’s why I use link aggregation sites a lot, because the news is curated by humans and there will always be nuanced discussion from multiple perspectives in the comments. Of course, this places trust in the link aggregation site to be powered by humans and not advertisers or influencers.
