The paper side would just be to anti-digitize my life more, feels like it would be almost like a paper RSS feed.
Back when people still understood that they don't need to know about every single "breaking" news story on the planet the instant it happens.
For a couple of months, I took a digital news break. I only read one national paper on Sundays, and the local paper twice a week. Amazingly, I didn't burst into flames or get stranger dangered. I felt both calm and informed. I plan to resume that pattern after the election.
FOMO is the drug. The tech industry is the dealer.
By analogy, my best market moves were when I checked market activity about once a week, irregularly. Once I made a big decision, I stuck with it by not checking the market for a while. Not saying that is right for everyone, or even for me all the time, but I did very well in the 2008 crash.

If you can track down some decent sources that you like (maybe something like Kagi News, https://www.positive.news/, a good local paper if you have one), you could with little effort vibe up a daily printout and have it waiting for you when you get up each day. For a fun version, there's plenty of cheap thermal printers on aliexpress and similar that'd give you a non-US Letter/A4 version so it doesn't feel like Yet Another Document.
I would imagine one could take something like that, and have program fetch it each morning, format it nicely, and print out a front page overview of what's going on. Just pick up the paper from the printer each morning.
This idea might be fine for a front page, but would fall apart when you start getting into long articles and think pieces. You'd be burning through a lot of paper.
have you read it recently? Is it still the authentic articles? (as opposed to ads for whatever you were browsing a few minutes earlier.)
