Significance is obviously subjective, but you can definitely make an argument that "major world power is trying to take over a country" is significant. It's been going on for a while which makes it harder to feel like it's so important, but it really is.

Hey, author here.

That was the initial idea. Significant events don't stop being significant once we get tired of hearing about them.

But there's definitely a problem of duplicates. When separate news sites post about a similar event it get rated relatively similar by ChatGPT, which creates clusters like we see today.

I want to solve this soon by combining similar stories into single block with one title.

That's another problem I had noticed from a bit of a play (similar problem with boringreport), so I'm glad you're already on it! I've signed up for premium.
Thank you so much! Hope to fix it soon.
