For the last several months, I’ve been on a news diet. Instead of constantly being bombarded with news on reddit, YouTube, and the Twitter Explore page, I’ve limited my consumption to checking Wikipedia's Current Events page and a few specific newsletters. While not always the most reliable source of information, I use Wikipedia for news because it’s an encyclopedia, it’s not sensationalized. Plus once you’re done reading the news of the day, there’s no infinite scroll. Newsletters are great because you can get information on very niche topics. This change has improved my mental health significantly, and I don’t feel any less informed.
