Finally a sane news app

I love that I can read all the major headlines around the world in under a few minutes and I don't have to worry about missing anything breaking because its only published once per day.

Now when I use the Apple News app, I find myself annoyed that they still show advertisements and they have "infinite scroll", which tries to get people to consume even more news.
