68k.news: Basic HTML Google News for Vintage Computers
I share the frustration with the major online news portals, and have in fact built my own portal powered by Wikipedia[1].
But eventually I realized that my biggest gripe with news today isn't the presentation but the content. And I'm not talking about biases or sensationalism – I'm talking about the news items themselves.
Much of what passes as news today is stuff like "15 people die when a copper mine collapses in Chile". I'm trying to get a big picture view of the world, and I don't believe that such stories are at all conducive to that endeavor. News as we know it is just an endless stream of random events, apparently selected according to a handful of crude criteria, the most important one being dead people. I've been a keen follower of global news for many years, and I don't feel that I'm understanding anything.
Where are the truly novel approaches to painting a picture of what the world is today? Where are the quantitative news portals, the event pattern search engines, the automatically derived trends? I'm still looking.

Ask HN: Have you stopped reading most news?
I love Wikipedia's "Current Events" portal so much that I have built a search engine for it: https://pastevents.org/
PastEvents is my entry point to the news nowadays. It updates daily and I can look at source material and relevant articles linked directly from the event, as well as search the past for related events to understand chronology.
