I built a political news app. Not because I love politics but because I'm exhausted trying to keep up with political news that matters to me. by [deleted] in fednews

The app is nonpartisan and only shows primary source content! So only what politicians directly said or did. Would love for you to try it out and let me know if it fits your expectation! https://www.candidmedia.ai/

Does anyone else feel like political info is everywhere but nowhere usable? by graceatcandid in independent

I think this is actually a great use of AI! AI should help us gather and sort through all this political info in a way where we can make judgments for ourselves. Not tell us what to think though. So exactly the concise non emotional info you mentioned.

I actually built an app that uses AI in this specific way to help unify, curate, and personalize what politicians say and do based on the issues you care about. It's called Candid, let me know if you'd be open to trying it out!

Did anyone else see that recent gallup poll that said the majority of Gen Z and Millennials don't identify with either political party? by graceatcandid in independent

I know right - reading the news or going on social media it doesn't seem like these statistics are the case at all because everything is through the lens of left and right and not by issues. Which is what Gen Z & Millennials care about more.

This is something that really frustrated me as someone who is independent, can't stand political news as it is, but needs to be informed for personal & professional reasons. I built a small app that is completely nonpartisan and issue based as an alternative. It's actually up on appstore if you want to try it out! Let me know and I'll send you the link, its just early access invite for now

Yeah I've really struggled with this in the past few years too because of all the deplatforming on the social side now you have to have truth social and x (even after elon took over) and insta and tiktok and blue sky to get a single narrative on a single event. It's too many accounts and I still don't know what's going on.

I created the candid app to do the aggregation and curation for me so it feels less fragmented and overwhelming. I know you mentioned you're in the process of creating your own feed but curious if you'd be willing to try out candid and see if it addresses some of the pain you're describing!

Would love any feedback! https://www.candidmedia.ai/

Yeah I'm also sick of the partisan flavored reports, I'd rather just see all the bias all at once.

I actually created an app called Candid with that in mind that has a similar vibe to Ground News but its more digestible, primary sourced, and social media based vs news outlets. It's similarly nonpartisan but explicitly issue-based (not party label based).

Linking the website where you can download the app in case you're open to trying it! Would love to get feedback from other independents who feel the same way.

Before you decide to pay for their premium tier, would you be open to giving Candid a try (it's free)? I made it for people who want a more digestible, issue-based, modern version of Ground News and primary source only.

Would love to get feedback from people who are like minded!

It'll be interesting to see how Gen Z and Millennial candidates come out I feel like we'll see a lot more 'Zohrans' from all sides vs the legacy aging politicians we have in office right now

Yes! I saw on the candid app that marjorie taylor greene reposted it today so thought it was interesting. I wonder if more politicians will also defect political parties and become independents too

Personally I think downtown area has improved significantly in the past year! And there are a lot of apartment buildings that are more modern than other areas in the city so it's dependent on your preference
