I am European and see another US news oriented site which ironically is not "minimalist" from my perspective. It is (to me) littered with US domestic concerns. My point is that _minimalist_ is highly subjective and a pretty huge promise from a site.

But kudos to the effort and the idea of keeping news small is a most noble cause

Agree, as a Canadian, I also find that today too many US-centric news made the cut, but often it's not the case. Here's a recent issue covering different topics and not mentioning US at all: https://newsletter.newsminimalist.com/p/tuesday-april-25-3-m...

Oddly enough in the 'least significant section', with scores <0.5, it's nearly all Daily Mail articles focused on the UK.

Also, the second to last least significant article seems to be incorrectly categorized: "Regenerative medicine has come a long way, baby"

Which is actually a serious look back at the advancements over the last quarter century, hardly deserving the second to last position.

It seems like ChatGPT is ranking them not based on actual content significance but presumed significance of the headline. (Which would also make sense technically as ~1200 headlines is about the max context length of GPT-4).
