really enjoy this app. it's helped me make sure I'm not so stuck in a singular news bubble like can happen with Social media algorithms and the like. It has been awesome and helpful. Hoping to see many more local news channels. Also needs more notification controls such as selecting only certain publications and further narrowing the types of notifications. ontop of making it only notify local stories and other options.

Overall a really great idea and execution. Unfortunately it has started to give me more and more sensationalist notifications (like the type of sandwich some politician ate for some reason?). It also puts things in Blindspot (which is for left/right reporting) that broke like an hour ago. That urgency is not helpful, and oftentimes we don't even have the facts on important events that quickly anyway. I'd love to see more of an effort to filter out the garbage instead of just aggregating it.

Overall it's a good app. I really like the summaries and bias comparison. However, the app has several flaws. 1) the bias comparison frequently gets the left and right mixed up. 2) it's hard to share links to original news sources. The option to share links generates ground.news links with unwanted utm parameters. 3) it's hard to follow a developing news story. I wish related stories were grouped so I could follow for updates. 4) the helpful info tooltips can remain open after being closed.
