Not yet....needs to post stories least at fas as mainstream apps. I have heard all of the info prior to recieving notifications. But that can be fixed. Also, all of the permission gives me pause. I still can see if it improves that I would use in the future.

This app just feels shady from jump. Asked for my location immediately and THEN wanted my Twitter login or to sign up to even use the app. I don't know/trust the developers to give them that kind of information. They could sell my logins or hack my accounts. Uninstalled.

Stories you won't read in mainstream media. Perspectives you can't read in mainstream media. Voices that need to be heard.

News is not often from a strong source.
