GrubNews is a news aggregator that focuses on pulling non-biased news sources around the world.

GrubNews utilizes a mixture of Reddit and Google News. In addition, the platform has a subscription package that provides TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read) summarization for each article and a stripped version of articles similar to Pocket. While it would be nice to admit it uses AI for TL;DR, I use a mixed summarization method:

• Determine most common word outside of standard words (e.g., them, us, you)
• Use first sentence with most common word
• Use longest sentence in article
• Find another sentence that is the last 75% of the article with highest score related to most common word, length, and distance
