Developed a News API Service - Looking for Feedback!

Hello everyone,

Hope you're all doing great!

I’ve been struggling to find an affordable news API service for a while, so I decided to build one myself. After a lot of hard work, it’s finally up and running at feedrika.com.

If you're interested in checking it out and giving me some feedback, I’d really appreciate it. Your insights would be super valuable in helping me make it better.

No pressure, though—just thought I'd share something that solved a pain point for me and might help others too.

Thanks a ton in advance!

Very cool! I'm playing with it to make an old style newspaper UI.

Would be nice to have suggested categories for each article included in the /latest feed.
Just the basics, Politics, Tech, Sports etc..

Could make it easier to segregate articles into sections for display on the front end.
