Are you on mastodon? It doesn’t rely on an algorithm, so people feel free to post how they like instead of trying to tailor their posts to draw the most engagement. I’m still on the hunt for good YT and Instagram replacements, I know there are a few but I’ve been more focused on building up my lemmy/mastodon experience for now. I also joined an instance that avoids defederation as much as possible, so I will see more posts from a variety of viewpoints.

As for news/information, Reuters, PEW Research, and C-SPAN are my go-to’s. I recently discovered Improve The News, which I like quite a lot as it provides the perspective from “both sides”.
