The Weekly Edition πŸ—žοΈ

Read even less news. Every Friday we take the weeks news, put it on one page, and show it to you so you only have to read the news once per week. That's 52 days out of the year you'll read the news leaving the other 313 days free for you to focus on other more important stuff in your life.

Inbox πŸ“§

Get The Weekly Edition or Today's news delivered directly to your email inbox so you don't even have to open a browser. There's no tracking pixels either, so your news remains private.

Focus πŸ”­

Turn on focus and when you click on a Wikipedia link, we'll show you just the text so you can stay focused on reading and not get distracted by images, navigation, footers, donation requests (don't worry, we donate $1 of your subscription to Wikimedia), and all the other stuff that appears on Wikipedia pages.
