  • UK here. Quite a rural area in the mid-90s, and worlds away from US gun culture, but one time our school was playing rugby against another rival school and a lad brought in a .22 air rifle and shot one of their players in the ass from the edge of the pitch. It was hilarious for those not involved, kid got a telling off and may have been briefly suspended, but thinking about how that would have been reported these days it would probably have caused national outrage.

  • Thing is though, There’s plenty of sources I haven’t blocked. It’s basically just the Daily Mail and a shitty red-top, so I can’t believe they only curate the sources that I’ve blocked. In which case the feed should consist of headlines from the other huge array of other news sources.

  • Fair enough. Although I would say that the magazine aspect (which I use it for primarily) couldn’t really adhere to that. The printed publications that you’d buy in a newsagent contain printed ads. I’m not saying it’s good, but it’s not different. Paper copy or digital, you’re getting ads with whichever one you pay for.

  • To be fair, the magazines available on News+ are great. I have Apple One because it covers all the household’s music/storage/fitness solutions for a reasonable price (considering how many people are on my subscription). News+ is included, and the list of magazine subscriptions bundled within it is surprisingly extensive. The app’s not perfect though, as this crappy design shows.
