News often stress me out because of the negativity, but I want to stay informed.

RSS lists that include your local news is your best bet. Then you don't have an algorithm sending you the worse most stressful news, it's listed in the order of the datastamp it was posted.

I keep seeing RSS lists recommended on Lemmy. Can you provide some links on how to set one up? Do I need a website? Does it get sent to an email? How do you find websites for thr RSS feed?

Install feedly on your phone. You can divide up your news sources into categories and it produces a good feed. It's all about building your sources of content.
