Hello HN,

This a small side project I built a few months ago and I find myself using it quite often to stay up to date so I thought I should share.

Its updated every few hours.

Feedback welcome.

Clean in this context means clean from clickbait headlines and presenting information more factually

How do you determine factually? Or do you filter out anything that isn't described as factual?

For example, you have

"Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says North Korea has become directly involved in the war, with a senior Ukrainian intelligence official saying around 3,000 North Korean troops are now in Russia, and are training for deployment to Russian-occupied territories. (Politico)"

which I have no clue if this is factual. How did you determine that it's factual?

When i say factual i mean a description thats straightforward and objective. No sensationalism or misleading framing to provoke an emotional reaction

Fully makes sense plus I appreciate the source right there in the title so you can use that as well to decide how trustworthy it might be. Well done
