Former investigative reporter turned developer. I built a simple breaking-news monitor because tracking events across platforms is a mess now that Twitter’s unreliable.Bluesky is the backbone (a fraction of twitter, but still lots of journalists and OSINT folks), plus RSS, Telegram, Reddit, YouTube and Mastodon. Everything is one chronological feed with no algorithm, clear source labels, and lightweight activity detection when a region spikes above baseline (frequency math, not LLMs).But we do have a (hopefully non-obtrusive) AI-generated recent/post summary.Been building for a while, figured I'd post in light of today's events. Can't promise it will survive or is good, any feedback appreciated.Built with Next.js 15 + TypeScript + Tailwind on Vercel. Real coded + supervised vibe coded.
