uhm… !world@lemmy.world ?
I got banned perminantly but cant find it in the modlog.
Are you asking this on an Android app where people discuss news and share it?
I mean I am looking for app that only does this with no other functionality.
Could you not, say, just subscribe to a news community and keep your settings to “local” so it only displayed that?
That is very inefficient compared to just having a whole app with only this functionality.
this is basically as if someone was asking for an app that only records 5 seconds of a video… and the camera app, that can do everything is “inefficient”.
let that sink in for a moment.
If you’re worried about inefficiency then why the fuck bother using apps when the websites work fine in mobile browsers? I use this site and it works better than any fucking app
Inefficient how? Battery life, storage space, ram, processor cycles?
- Create new Lemmy account.
- Subscribe to news communities only.
- Download alternate Lemmy app or clone your current one somehow (i.e work profile).
- Use second lemmy app with new lemmy account only for news.
- Profit?
I think Lemmy does this. Also Mastodon.
Hacker News
I think a lot of smaller local news sites have that option too?? Sometimes when I click on a news article, there is a comment section below where people can throw their 2 cents.
App accessibility will be pending which news sites…
I haven’t logged in yet, but Newsmast is an app that runs off of Mastodon. Could be what you’re looking for (but I also might misunderstand what the app actually does).
One I can think of is Flipboard (yes, they are part of the fediverse)
