Show HN: TLDR (short) news website with my own algorithm (excerptdaily.com)
I'm actively working on a news shortening website. Trying to save you from clickbaits, save your time and save you from reading Bible-sized articles
What I hate the most when reading news is reading Bible-size articles just to find the main point of the article. Usually journalists write a bunch of unnecessary information just to create 400+ long articles and position better on Google.
Worst of all are those clickbait titles or titles that tell you a portion of information just to make you intrigue and make you click on the article.
For me personally, it is very annoying and frustrating. I like to spend like 30 seconds tops on an article, I want to get the information as fast as possible and move on.
So with my [ExcerptDaily](https://excerptdaily.com/) I'm trying to:
* Save people's time
* Inform you as fast as possible
* Give you the main point of an article in 5 sentences
* Save you from clickbait or half clickbait titles
I wrote my own algorithm and tried a few of them, now I'm focusing on my own algorithm and making it better. I focused on the US market and CNN only so far, it is my ground zero.
