Allsides.com. I get to see different perspectives from right/center/left on the same or similar topics. I think this is US only news however.

How does Allsides.com handle topics that is only covered by one segment of the political spectrum? To me this is where much of the bias lies.

I outsourced my news consumption to coworkers, friends and family. After being a news enthusiast this change is more than welcome because I found that 99.9% doesn't offer actionable information and that .1% you find out anyway.

My pet project may be interesting to you: https://www.slowernews.com

It tries to filter the 99,9% and keep the 0,01% that we all fear missing out. Making sense of chaos is a sisyphean task but I see it as a way of using my procrastination positively.
