Publisher Description
String is a single destination for getting and sharing news with your friends. It’s a completely centralized platform for the news experience. Get multiple perspectives from thousands of diverse news sources, instantly share news you read with friends, comment on what’s happening, and see what news others find important.
String isn’t just about what we do but what we don’t do.
String is an interactive news experience that accelerates the news we get in a way that isn’t crowded with memes, isn’t noisy with user-generated content, and isn’t chaotic. We’ve reduced misinformation and disinformation by removing user-generated content and limiting content sharing to real sources only.
We want to encourage people to read real news from real sources and to bring people closer together through media.
