Why TownsLine exists.
The idea was born years ago, in Fredericton. I felt like I was living in an information vacuum — my town's news scattered across dozens of websites, Facebook groups, and feeds, and I'd have to scan them all just to learn anything about the place I lived in.
So I built the thing I wished existed: set your town once, and TownsLine scans your local news sources around the clock and serves every story in one clean inbox. No tracking ads. No algorithms deciding what you see. No noise.
And it's not just for one town. It works for any town, anywhere — because the information vacuum isn't a Fredericton problem. It's everywhere.
— Yuriy, founder
What TownsLine stands for
- Every town matters — from Airdrie to Lviv to Dublin to Tokyo, 2,367 towns and counting.
- You decide what you see — your town, your feeds, your categories. Nothing hidden, nothing pushed.
- No tracking ads, no trackers, no engagement algorithms — the product is the product. Local businesses can post clearly labeled updates; nothing is ever mixed into your news pretending to be a story.
