I think the difference between a cult and a religion is the number of followers. If Islam or Christianity were to have a few thousand members (a little minority) we would 100% consider them cults. And terrible/crazy/primitive ones for that matter.

At one point I remember putting a little homescreen shortcut for TROMnews on my mobile so that I visit it more often. I do visit the site from time to time and I agree that it's an important project, there's no other news site like it. For me the biggest issue when it comes to keeping up with news is my eye strain because the articles can get quite long sometimes. So that's one reason why I don't often read much and stick with podcasts or short videos. Some news websites these days also provide an option to listen to their articles, this not only helps the blind/visually-impaired folks but also people like me who suffer from eye strain issues - so I hope this trend catches on because it's a win for accessibility.

Yeah for sure these plugins and stuff makes it quick & easy for you to design websites. You need to know some programming and stuff to manage everything by hand and even then it'll take some time, if I learn enough skills to do this then I'll try to help you with the programming side of things so that you can focus on the content side.
