A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.
Rules:
- Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
- Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
- Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
- Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
- No link shorteners
- No entire article in the post body

Why is that news?
Because it’s a “newly received information, especially about recent events”
So it only barely technically qualifies and you can't justify squat. Yeah seems about right.
That's literally what news means. Something happened, here's what we know. Why so hostile?
So a cat in a tree is news as well then.
And an orchard producing 3 fewer batches of apples than last year.
And a slightly windier season.
🙄
Yes, minor news, but yes. That is how words work
