Years ago Yahoo has shut down Yahoo News Digest. It was an app loved by millions. The idea is simple, a once daily news digest that delivers and unbiased 6-10 stories. Each story broken down into atoms; summary, quote, images, maps. With the advancement in LLM's it made it possible to bring this back. Its called Quill News Digest and it follows nearly the same format.

Everyone is sick of scrolling through endless feeds or watching people yell at each other on tv.

Quill delivers an unbiased and succinct digest that you can complete. Just like a newspaper. Once you're done you can get on with your day.

It has really helped me out and I think it could be useful to you too. Check it out below.

    Nice! What is the point of the "Levels"? I'm suspicious of any attempt a gamification.
