Everything I’ve done with myLocal NewsBot project is intended to make Mastodon/the Fediverse equally useful for up-to-date local news and information, and for the most part I think it’s been successful; I’m able to stay up to date, even ahead of traditional news sources.

The remaining nuts that need to be cracked IMO are local business pages and groups (and maybe Marketplace). We need something on the side that speaks to those needs.
