- Comment on What are some good, independent news outlets that are reliable? 2 days ago:
I think you are on the right track. Newswire services like AP and Reuters tend to have the least noticeable spin, but no news service is bias free. Best you can do is diversify your outlets and look at not just the narrative but now each outlet sources their claims (Who are they talking to? What data do they use to support their conclusions?)
I do not know much about HK news sources, but I follow some Taiwan-based outlets like Focus Taiwan (state-backed) and Taipei Times (largest English-language outlet). There is often coverage of HK and southeast Asia there but obviously more in how it relates to Taiwan. NHK in Japan may also be an option. Best of luck!

- Comment on Are separable verbs a thing in ENG? 1 month ago:
The closest English has is phrasal verbs like “I turned the light off” or "I went to pick the kids up. Generally verb+particle = new verb. Sometimes you can put a noun between the verb and particle but not always (I looked the toys for vs. I looked for the toys)
These are not just verbs plus postpositions as “I turned the light” and “I went to pick the kids” have entirely different meanings.
- Comment on Is it just me or does it seem Google is either AI filled or becoming obsolete? Is there an up and comer that can be what Google used to be? Or are we stuck oogling stuff forever? 3 months ago:
noai.duckduckgo.com is the best drop-in replacement for a free pre-AI search engine.
kagi.com is great if you can justify paying for it.
I’ve used both for a long time and have never missed Google, especially in its current state.

On a side note but related, github.com/kmille/freetar is a private front-end for Ultimate Guitar that’s amazing. Free public instance at freetar.de.
Never went back to UG after finding this, so much better than navigating their awful website.
