Say you have 10 feeds from major news publishers in your reader, BBC, NY Times, Le Monde, etc. because you value wide coverage. When the King of England dies you will have 10 nearly identical articles in your feed with the facts of his death from those outlets, plus at least another 10 nearly identical ones reminiscing about his life and impact, and dozens more related ones from various contributors. Your feed will be clogged for days with repeated info about one old dead guy. This is an annoying reality of RSS.
On Google News there will be one box dedicated to His Royal Corpse showing maybe a few stories, semi-randomly selected for relevance by an algorithm. If you want the fire hose coverage it's a click away, but on the front page it's contained and doesn't dominate everything else. I want that for RSS.
Just found this thread from March looking for the exact same thing, with no helpful suggestions unfortunately. I think folks either don't understand what's being asked or don't understand how Google News works.
infeeeee@lemmy.zip It's a matter of duplication.
