Thanks for the list!
I've heard bad things about hexbear and beehaw. But I looked at these other two.
!politics@sh.itjust.works -- unfortunately too many dumb restrictions.
Rule: Title must match the article headline <-- definitely a deal killer because often journalists use dumb headlines or leave the most important things out of the headline.
Rule Recent (Past 30 Days) <-- also a deal killer. Relevant is more important the recent. They are not the same things. "Recent" is only an imperfect proxy for "relevant".
usa@midwest.social -- We have a winner!
Rule: Be respectful and civil. No racism/bigotry/hateful speech. <-- perfect
I would also welcome suggestions for "news" groups outside of lemmy.world and lemmy.ml. usnews@lemy.lol is okay so far but I'm always looking for possible alternatives.
