   F5Bot is awesome. Compared to similar services, it delivers notifications in nearly real-time. I get notified about online discussions mentioning my product as they happen, not a day later.

• Ask HN: How to Make News Aggregation Work in 2024?

  When google did this long ago: https://news.google.com/ I knew the new industry was going to collapse. What more do you need from a new aggregator? Journalism was doomed since though.

Are you saying that those government officials are spreading misinformation? Source: 10 months ago
