I just created https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] it’s fed by a bot so it won’t be to everyone’s taste, but I hope the links will be good quality

Easier to sub from other instances with this link: [email protected]
What news sites are included overall? How does the bot decide what to post?
It scrapes /r/worldnews with the below parameters (which I may adjust)
- subreddit: worldnews postFilter: postLimit: 75 # Limits the number of posts to retrieve from the subreddit. minUpvotes: 500 # Sets the minimum number of upvotes a post must have to be included. maxDownvotes: 300 # Sets the maximum number of downvotes a post can have to be included. minUpvoteRatio: 0.75 # Defines the minimum ratio of upvotes to total votes a post must have to be included. maxTimeHours: 20 # Specifies the maximum age (in hours) of a post to be included. excludedUrlPatterns: # User defined regular expresions to exclude urls. - .redd.it$ - reddit.com - i.redd.it/\w+ - v.redd.it/\w+ community: [email protected]
Looks like the people of reddit select it by upvoting it and then the bot harvests their choices.
