    Thanks for the list!

    I’ve heard bad things about hexbear and beehaw. But I looked at these other two.

    [email protected] – unfortunately too many dumb restrictions.

    Rule: Title must match the article headline <-- definitely a deal killer because often journalists use dumb headlines or leave the most important things out of the headline.

    Rule Recent (Past 30 Days) <-- also a deal killer. Relevant is more important the recent. They are not the same things. “Recent” is only an imperfect proxy for “relevant”.

    [email protected] – We have a winner!

    Rule: Be respectful and civil. No racism/bigotry/hateful speech. <-- perfect

    I would also welcome suggestions for “news” groups outside of lemmy.world and lemmy.ml. [email protected] is okay so far but I’m always looking for possible alternatives.
