The North Star for the /news channel is being able to successfully curate the interesting and breaking US + World news stories that you’d normally have to check your news app for. We’re not even close to hitting that goal. If you’re interested in contributing (sporadically is okay!), please reply to this cast. The only taboo topic is crypto. There are hundreds of channels that are better fitted for crypto-specific news.
