Show HN: Latest news from over 100 countries in one single place

Posted by sideproject on Monday July 26, 2021 @02:35AM
from the show-hn dept.

What's happening in all the countries right now? Do I need to know? Yes. Do I want to know? Yes! So I created this.

https://www.tello.app

Collected a large number of RSS feeds on latest news of more than 100 countries (All in English for now by the way).

Some of the things I learned..

I still love RSS feeds

All news sites should have RSS feeds

I never knew some of the countries that existed - Saint Vincent and the Grenadines? Grenada? Guadeloupe? Montserrat? (until yesterday Montserrat was Google Font I use)

I added each country's flag emoji as part of the name - really like some countries' flags!!

And obiviously, got to read a lots of news articles - and.. a lot of articles are about COVID

Sorry. But any site which shits a content-blocking modal dialogue in my face, asking me to sign up for something, before I've even had the chance to so much as glance at what's on the page, gets closed straight away.

Stop doing this, web developers. Its fucking infuriating!

That's really nice, well done. It's great to see such a wide range of countries.

One bit of feedback, I went to scroll down on my phone and quickly started inadvertently dragging news boxes all around :-)

Good job! Just a small feedback, it's really hard to find a specific country in using that dropdown menu without alphabetic order.
