• Apr 24th is JavaScript Naked Day – Browse the web without JavaScript

  > Did you know that CNN tries to run JavaScript from more than 30 domains on the front page, but is functional and ad-free after enabling 2 or 3? Might try https://lite.cnn.com. - Source: Hacker News / 25 days ago

• Lite dot domain – all sites should include an HTML(ish) only version

  * https://lite.cnn.com/ But I think sites should be made more accessible/simpler to begin with, rather than having a competing implementation. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• No One Wants Simplicity

  > I live CNN lite: https://lite.cnn.com Such a refreshing site to see. It is like early 2000s internet before the introduction of the dynamic web. https://www.w3schools.com/asp/asp_ajax_intro.asp#:~:text=AJAX%20is%20a%20technique%20for,without%20reloading%20the%20whole%20page. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• No One Wants Simplicity

  > The article claims people think they want simplicity, but aren't willing to sacrifice anything to get it. I live CNN lite: https://lite.cnn.com I guess I am weird but the way websites are designed confuses the crap out of my brain. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Why is mainstream media coverage of France so limited?

  It's everywhere I get the news. If you want a deep dive, just go to France24.com or LeMonde.fr/en or even bbc.com/news. Source: about 1 year ago

• Biden calls 'emergency' meeting after missile hits Poland

  Aight so the general idea here is it's not absolutely certain that Russia shot it and they're definitely denying it. Poland's trying to keep calm to avoid having to invoke article 4 and are leaning on the side of "accident" at the moment. This is almost certainly going to be fine, but if you want to stay up to date on it go to the BBC for decently unbiased reporting. Source: over 1 year ago

• Trader blames Brexit for soaring price of fish – but BBC edits it out

  It's similar to the memory hole effect with online news sites. If you initially release an article with inaccurate or misrepresented headline and contents, then change it later on without any record of the change (something the BBC has repeatedly done on bbc.com/news) you get a difference in perception of a news event based on when someone saw/read the coverage.

• Boris Johnson calls for calm after a fiery fourth night of violence in Northern Ireland

  True. I visit news.sky.com and bbc.com/news front page daily and I only found about it yesterday. Source: about 3 years ago
