Hi there, I’m quite new to this digital hygiene thing. I try to avoid apps on my phone that tracks useless data for their initial purpose. How do you guys read news ? Would love a "respectful" app that doesn’t track too much data, but I’m open to any solution. Would like to browse international and french news.

Have you tried Apple’s included “News” app? I’m in the US, so I’m not sure how well it would work for you. But Apple generally doesn’t sell your data, although I’m sure they do analytics for internal use.

I use that, Ground News, and daily digest emails from my local city newspaper and the indie neighborhood news site.

I might try Apple News, but I’m afraid of a possible bias. Ground News on the other hand seems to provide many sources for one subject and I’m digging it for now
