I was feeling that I wasn't as informed as I used to be about world affairs compared to the old days of reading the newspapers, mainly because of how UK news are now focused on promoting UK/US news. The stories are there, on the guardian, the times, etc., but it's hard to find them. Whether it's the algos, or that screen space is harder to balance coverage, or whether it was easier to skip to the back in newspapers to read the world news, I'm not sure.

So I've been trying Al Jazeera as an additional source, and I have to say, it's good. I feel it's fairly unbiased, a bit left leaning, the writing quality is high, the occasional piece that's not is because it is written by a foreign, local, journalist that offers real local insight on an issue (e.g. they had a Tunisian journalist writing about the anniversary).

Give it a go.
