About Otherweb

The internet is full of clickbait, eye-catchers, autoplaying videos, fake news and other forms of digital junk. The Otherweb is a walled-garden where users can cut through the noise. We aggregate news, opinion columns, podcasts, research studies, and many other sources of information - in one place. We apply heavy NLP-based filtering to remove all the junk. And we give our users tools to customize their feeds with complete transparency.

Fun way of getting the news! This app is super cool. You get all of the news you want and none of the stuff you don’t want. I love the swiping feature it makes it fun to read the news.

Best site to get news from! This newsletter is amazing. While reading, I don’t feel like I’m reading any false information. You can tell this newsletter works hard to put out authentic, important, and non biased news. There is no clickbait, or junk news! It is reliable and all extremely interesting and useful in our everyday lives. From now on to stay informed, I will rely on this newsletter for everyday important news!

Fun way to customize your daily news! Rather than having to scroll through news articles that don’t interest me Otherweb.com customizes my daily news to only display news I’m interested in. I like the swipe left/right feature that lets me pick the articles I want read and get rid of those I don’t. This feature is similar to swiping on a dating app, which make the process fun!

This app is incredible This app is incredible. When I downloaded it, I was skeptical. But it far exceeded my expectations. I get my news in the morning on the BBC World Service. I consider myself a knowledgeable person. I am also a high school English and History teacher. I love this app because it allows me to swipe left or right based on the interest level of a current story. I swiped left on articles that I found uninteresting and the app quickly learned to give me the kinds of information I wanted. When the app shows you a headline and you click through, the next page has convenient bullet pointed summary of the main ideas. This is excellent for those of us who are busy and may not have time to read a full length article. Additionally, there is a tab for punditry and the app allows you to select sources. I also has this clever analysis of the quality of the work called the "nutrition label". There, you get information on the tone, relative complexity and neutrality of the language. This function is truly outstanding not only for educators but also for all those who want to be selective about the quality of the information they consume! I often download news apps, find them lacking, and then uninstall them right away. I will not be doing that with Otherweb!
