I love the UI, It is simple and clean; it reminds me more of Hacker News

It's refreshing and I like the use of public domain artwork.

Are the articles sourced from different news outlets? On a first glance they are from Bloomberg, AP, etc.

Is it basically a glorified reader mode?

georgehill2• 3 years ago

yes, it seems like

DanAtC• 3 years ago

Weird. No RSS feed though so into the bin it goes.

Can't even see the website, just a big "YEWS IS DESIGNED FOR MOBILE"

ozaark• 3 years ago

Same. I'm on mobile. Maybe iphone only or it's down already?

NJRBailey• 3 years ago

Checked on iPhone, it shows the following:

Or just tap submit

It's based on the window width. It needs to be 479px wide or smaller.

iliaznk• 3 years ago

Just make the viewport narrower than 480px.

scudsworth• 3 years ago

so. how is yews pronounced

avs733• 3 years ago

I think it depends on who’s nearby.

wrycoder• 3 years ago

Yews as in Eew

smitty1e• 3 years ago

Ask Pittsburgh Dad[1]. It's "yinz" in the second person, I think.

nice webflow

evbogue• 3 years ago

Reminds me of Drudge Report a little

sbininit• 3 years ago

Really interested in what their content moderation strategy looks like

asda_• 3 years ago

Let me take a guess...none?

Did Ye code this himself? It's...something

thewub• 3 years ago

Two of the stories I've looked at so far ("Elon Plans New University in Austin" and "Google, Apple Lose Grip on App Stores" under 12 13 23 3PM) are blatantly plagiarised from the linked sources. And for the first the "source" link is an archive.is copy to bypass Bloomberg's paywall. If there's many more like that, I expect this site to not last long.

Always nice to see a bit of William Blake though.

Guess it’s time I start calling myself a high end designer / full stack dev

tmaly• 3 years ago

Ye has some mad coding skillz!

voisin• 3 years ago

A race to see whether he or Elon can post the most antisemitic thing online for 2023. Elon has the early lead, but what he lacks in timeliness, Ye more than makes up for in paranoia.

Very editorial tone in "DeSantis Surrogate Embarrassed on TV"

Dave Rubin, a washed-up podcaster who purchased both his children earlier this year, appeared on Bill Maher's show, where he was grilled for his support for DeSantis as president.
