Not sure how you're curating your "good"news but maybe you could include a submissions API for content providers to submit or link their good news to your aggregator. And maybe a "this sure ain't good news"button could be used to report incorrect articles.

This way maybe larger publishers could send you their good news articles, rather than you digging around to find them.

Also I wouldn't shy away from advertising. What if you only used a curated set of approved advertisers. Things like local solar installers or ethical farm delivery in your area type of things. Not all advertising is from predatory super large corporations.

Absolutely agree with all of this! This site is such a great idea and with some small improvements even more folks would be able to enjoy reading it.

Chrome Devtools is a great one to use for testing, I'm also really fond of Siteimprove and Accessibility Insights too. I'd also urge you to try a bit of manual testing as well, for example I noticed I was unable to effectively navigate using keyboard alone because I couldn't easily tell what links had focus when I hit the tab key. This article Focus management and inert is a great primer on the subject.

Managing accessibility audits can be a bit daunting if you're just starting out, I would recommend checking out https://beinclusive.app/ to help ease some of that burden. It was purpose built specifically for this purpose, with a guided setup and helpful tips along the way. Try it free for a week!
