I think another great idea might be to embed several graphs of long-term global trends.

So for example:

I'm happy to compile a list of these. Topics could be: CO2 levels, inequality, global happiness, global wealth, poverty, hunger, computing power... etc etc.

I think this might aid the whole longer-term perspective goals of slow news?

The feed (https://www.slowernews.com/rss.xml) linked on the homepage is not a valid RSS feed: https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.slowernews.com%2Frss.xml, hence it fails to be parsed in most feed readers. It's mainly due to use of raw HTML tags in the description. You can wrap the markup in CDATA to fix the issue.

On the front page of this repo, in the readme and in the description line at the top both use "neither" when they should use "or".

"Neither" should always be paired with "nor". For example "Neither X nor Y are acceptable to me."

Don't miss out neither spend a shit-ton of time distilling trivia.

Should read "Don't miss out, or spend a shit-ton of time distilling trivia."

OR alternately,

"Neither miss out, nor spend a shit-ton of time distilling trivia."

Unfortunately that doesn't read as well. It really wants something before the neither to.

Additionally, it's not clear from the sentence what you're missing out on.

So....

"With Slower News you neither miss out [on ?????], nor spend a shit-ton of time distilling trivia."

I like the idea, here are some suggestions for more details:

1. Currently some articles require a subscription or are behind a paywall maybe add a [$] to indicate.
2. An index of all sections would be great
3. Type of article would be great (comment, report ...)
4. When an article was added to the page

I frequently select text while I read but in this page it appears blurry as the image shows.

Hey, thanks for the site, I've been looking for something similar for a long time.

I'd like to consume the updates through RSS, but it's giving me the following error:

XML Parsing Error: mismatched tag. Expected: </p>.

Thanks!

Using chrome with the dark-mode flag enabled. I've never seen any other site do this, could be worth checking out as dark-mode is becoming more popular.

This is a great, slow-news style journey through the earth's climatic history.
