Controls

By Score Newest First
{{ sortByTime ? 'Showing articles in chronological order (newest first)' : 'Showing articles ranked by score' }}
{{ clickbaitWeight.toFixed(1) }}
Higher = clickbait headlines penalized more
{{ clusterBoost.toFixed(1) }}
Boost per story covering the event (e.g. 40 with 2.0 = +80 points)
{{ importanceMultiplier }}
Multiplier for AI importance score (0-9). E.g. score 5 x 20 = +100 pts
Current Gravity {{ gravity.toFixed(1) }}
Last visit: {{ formatTimeSinceVisit() }} {{ getVisitCategory() }}
Higher gravity = older news drops faster in rankings
Override auto-set gravity for this session
Auto-Gravity Presets
Fresh (visited < 5 min ago)
{{ gravityPresets.fresh.toFixed(1) }}
Recent (visited < 2 hrs ago)
{{ gravityPresets.recent.toFixed(1) }}
Stale (visited 2+ hrs ago)
{{ gravityPresets.stale.toFixed(1) }}
Gravity auto-adjusts on page load based on when you last visited. Fresh visits use high gravity (suppress old news you've seen), stale visits use low gravity (show more older news).
Number of columns when viewing by category
Performance note: Safari and mobile devices should use Low Power Mode (enabled by default). Chrome on desktop can use High Power for live score updates.

{{ (multiplier / 100).toFixed(1) }}
How much weight to give personalisation scores
Auto Boost
Extra boost based on votes ({{ currentAutoBoost }}/{{ autoBoostMax }})
+1 per vote, capped at {{ autoBoostMax }}. You've voted {{ interactionCount }} times.
Low Power Mode
Update scores on page reload only
Scores update when you refresh the page. Recommended for Safari and mobile. Scores update live after each vote. May cause slowness on Safari/mobile.
Effective multiplier: {{ (effectiveMultiplier / 100).toFixed(2) }} ({{ (multiplier / 100).toFixed(1) }} + {{ currentAutoBoost / 100 }})
Example: match score 90 x {{ (effectiveMultiplier / 100).toFixed(2) }} = +{{ (90 * effectiveMultiplier / 100).toFixed(0) }} ELO
Stats: {{ classifierStats.trained }} | {{ classifierStats.performance }}

Choose a geographic edition to adjust regional news prominence.

{{ getEditionDescription(currentEdition) }}

What editions do:

  • * Adjust which regional section gets the main slot (42 items)
  • * Move other regional sections to smaller sizes or hide them
  • * Changes section priority so your region appears near the top

You can still manually adjust sections in the Sections tab after selecting an edition.

About

jkl.io is a customisable user-centric news aggregator. We are pursuing a user-supported model to avoid "optimising for engagement".

We draw from diverse quality sources, public broadcasters, universities, think tanks, traditional media, as well as the web.

Our default algorithm favours serious news are there are controls that allow you to tune how scores decline over time, the clickbait penalty, and how much of a boost to give to coverage.

You can customise the interface: themes, fonts, columns, section order and size.

The optional personalisation algorithm runs completely locally on your computer. Easy to interpret scores, out of 100, are paired with a dedicated section for model examination.

There is no user tracking, no analytics, no user accounts, no cookies, no cookie popups, and no server-based data storage or personalisation.

The defaults are based on and optimised for Canberra, Australia.
