The problem I run into is most news sites optimize for 2 things
So most sites have a fuck ton of noise and carpet bomb ads.
I'd love to go back to the RSS model but it's hard finding sites worth reading again.
Find one or two sites you regularly like from your usual sources. Then when THOSE sources link to another source, FOLLOW that link. If that site has good content, add it to your list.
It doesn't take long to build a solid RSS feed, just need to spend a little time curating it. The key is to pay attention to who is providing the info.
Don't like the direction a site is going, remove it from your feed.
If you see that one source is commonly the original source for information, or reporting make sure you do what you can to support it. Do they have a patreon? Can you share it out to your other sources?
Also, make sure you're not falling into a bubble, follow national and international news sources.
Yeah, is there some sort of directory or something? That'd be cool.
