Let's take one big example: climate change. Without the news, things would be different. It might never have achieved the level of funding and attention it has so far if it weren't for general public awareness.

He, you just couldn't do worse, right?

I have a Gopher site for that, from a really insteresting guy:

gopher.club/1/users/mmeta4/

No ads, no likes, no bullshit. Just pure text, some images and PDF's readable even under a Linux framebuffer.
