Cacophony Press

Independent news discovery

In Development

News without the noise

Find independent reporting without the algorithm.

Cacophony Press is a place to find recent stories from independent publications. Instead of guessing what will keep you scrolling, it shows new reporting in order and points you back to the people who published it.

Newest stories first Sources clearly labeled Choose topics Read at the original site

A reader for independent news sites

The goal is simple: make it easier to keep up with independent journalism without checking a dozen sites or hoping a social feed shows you the important links.

  • Recent stories appear newest first.
  • Every story shows where it came from.
  • You can browse by publication, topic, date, or search term without making an account.

Not another social feed

Cacophony Press is not trying to become another social network or tell you what to think. It is meant to help you find reporting, understand where it came from, and then read it at the original publication.

  • No popularity sorting designed to keep you scrolling.
  • No streaks, nagging notifications, or unnecessary tracking.
  • No copying full articles away from the publishers who made them.

How it works

Choose trustworthy sources Independent publications are added intentionally, not pulled from every corner of the web.
Check for new stories The app looks for fresh reporting from those publications throughout the day.
Keep the feed tidy Stories are checked for missing details, repeated links, and obvious display problems.
Pick what to read You filter the feed, find a story, and open the full article at the publisher's site.

Follow the build

The first milestone is a useful public reader: real independent sources, a clean newest-first feed, simple search, topic filters, and clear links back to the original publications.

Major updates only. No spam, no selling data, and no account required to read the public feed.
