I finally removed Blinkfeed from my home screen pages. Blame News Republic for displaying more fake news and clickbaiting sources than ever before, and now not allowing users to block the worst sources.

It's too bad, as just last week I was coming to realize that Blinkfeed and News Republic had matured into a very respectable and useful news reader. And then something snapped within News Republic.

No more. Gone!

Now searching for something else....

I no longer trust the News Republic app or its developer. Clickbaiting, fake news and deflective responses to Google Play Store reviews have convinced me that they can't be trusted with an app that constantly runs in the background on my phone. If you can, go into settings/apps and disable this app. Not a trusted developer.
