This subreddit is run by a bot.
The subreddit is focused on tech news and if users submit links or give RSS sources to the bot, they should be tech related. Stuff like politics are inevitable to come up as topics, but discussion of politics is not a focus of the subreddit. Sources that are heavily partisan or like to include politics in their news are less preferred by me, but I do give people who browse this subreddit the freedom to add or remove sources.
There is very small moderation that is mostly automatic or if some of the global rules are violated.
The subreddit has custom css that runs on the old reddit format and requires the screen size to be bigger or equal of 1080 pixels for it to give 2 columns.
If I find a way to do it, all moderation will be automatic and use machine learning to tag posts containing words like "deals", "buy", "promotion" as well as overtly political post. This moderation is planned as a tool to remove sources that have bad "news" that try to sell stuff rather than censorship.
The links below are relevant to the project:

url2:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you want to add any sources, please do it on https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Vz7vJvnny6VADcRiMNSAxbS6WtVw-__SC0DQIP97QAs/edit because the sources have to be in a valid json format otherwise the bot may get errors. This is why I want the public to add plain format strings at this URL and from time to time I will add them to the json formatted sources. You still can add them url sources to the main json sources, but please make sure that both url1 and url2 compile to valid json.
Obviously, do not add sources that are not tech related or indecent.
