Show HN: TLDR (short) news website with my own algorithm

3 pointsby superdarioalmost 3 years ago
I&#x27;m actively working on a news shortening website. Trying to save you from clickbaits, save your time and save you from reading Bible-sized articles What I hate the most when reading news is reading Bible-size articles just to find the main point of the article. Usually journalists write a bunch of unnecessary information just to create 400+ long articles and position better on Google.<p>Worst of all are those clickbait titles or titles that tell you a portion of information just to make you intrigue and make you click on the article.<p>For me personally, it is very annoying and frustrating. I like to spend like 30 seconds tops on an article, I want to get the information as fast as possible and move on.<p>So with my [ExcerptDaily](<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;excerptdaily.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;excerptdaily.com&#x2F;</a>) I&#x27;m trying to:<p>* Save people&#x27;s time<p>* Inform you as fast as possible<p>* Give you the main point of an article in 5 sentences<p>* Save you from clickbait or half clickbait titles<p>I wrote my own algorithm and tried a few of them, now I&#x27;m focusing on my own algorithm and making it better. I focused on the US market and CNN only so far, it is my ground zero.

This looks great, a while back I was working on a website called <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;justfive.news" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;justfive.news</a> really liked your layout and all

This is the best of these attempts I&#x27;ve seen so far.
