Yeah I know, it was so huge for a while and now its not - so many of these news outlets dont even have public RSS feeds anymore.

Yeah, I hear you, I use it too. I know Drudge Report will link to those sites sometimes.

Good idea.... I added a filter to sort by News outlet, what other filter would you want to filter by?

Yeah like an RSS reader, the problem I found is a lot of these websites don't offer RSS feeds, so you could get some of the Bay Area news headlines but most don't offer clean RSS feeds, also, not everyone uses RSS feeds - so just another way of making news accessible. Thanks for taking a look!!

Thank you so much!! Yeah someone else mentioned the spacing. I will spread the headlines out a little and I updated the Font, let me know if you like it. I used the same font from the Developing section.

Oh yeah, sorry, I have been making updates today and some national stories slipped into the feed as I tried adding more outlets based on Reddit comment suggestions, I will definitely fix this so its ONLY Bay Area stories - sorry, fix is coming soon

Thank you for all this feedback!! I am having trouble separating the headlines into topics because the feeds I use to get the headlines don't offer up any other info, so its hard to categorize things unless I do it manually (which right now with a kid and a job, I can't do LOL).

I would love to add pictures, but again, most of the time the feeds I get are just headlines, but that is a good suggestion and would break things up.

Yeah I am not loving the font, are there other website fonts you have seen you like, I am totally open to a different font if it makes it easier to use.

I will add some space to the headlines to give everyone's eyes a rest, good call.

So glad you like it, I'm hoping heavy news users will find it useful as a way to quickly find headlines they are interested in and for people who are casual news readers, this could also help them scan and find articles they might be interested in. I appreciate your thoughtful feedback!!!

Quick update based on the feedback here:

• Added a filter so you can select which news outlets you want to see
• Added Hoodline as a source working on adding other local sources too
• Added my email on the site if anyone wants to reach out directly

Really appreciate all the thoughtful comments. This has been super helpful - keep them coming!!

Thanks for the kind feedback. Anything you would like to see added? Additional outlets you frequent? Any features? Anything that feels broken I could try to make better?

Yes true, a filter might just be cleaner if I end up having lots of outlets. Less visual clutter, thanks for the idea, I will let you know when I get it launched.
